Specifically you will:
•Characterise the interaction of cellular proteins with proteins from Hendra virus and related paramyxoviruses.
•Establish the role played by key host proteins in virus replication and pathogenesis using mutagenesis and gene knock-down technologies.
•Develop small molecule inhibitors of host-virus interactions as next generation antiviral strategies.
•Undertake regular reviews of relevant literature and patents.
•Produce high quality scientific and/or engineering papers suitable for publication in quality journals, for client reports and granting of patents.
•Prepare appropriate conference papers and present those at conferences as agreed with your supervisor.

To be successful in this position you will have:
•A doctorate (or will shortly satisfy the requirements of a PhD) in a relevant discipline area, such as molecular biology, protein chemistry or microbiology/virology.
•A track record of achievement in molecular biology, virology or protein chemistry.
•Demonstrated high level skills in protein characterisation and cell biology techniques.
•Demonstrated ability to analyse information, with excellent written and oral communication skills in the form of scientific papers in peer-reviewed international journals and conference presentations.
•A record of science innovation and creativity, plus the ability & willingness to incorporate novel ideas and approaches into scientific investigations.
• The ability to work effectively as part of a multi-disciplinary, regionally dispersed research team, plus the motivation and discipline to carry out autonomous research.
