The three main CIDR research themes are novel diagnostics for acute infection with a particular focus on bacterial, fungal and viral respiratory infections, surveillance and epidemiology of antimicrobial resistance, and clinical trials of novel therapies and vaccines.

Projects include nanopore sequencing to detect and prevent transmission of respiratory viruses in the hospital, evaluation of rapid diagnostic and screening strategies (including LamPORE), and serological tests to assess immunity following natural infection and vaccination.

The level of support required will vary between projects and may include advice on experimental design and appropriate analytical approaches, training researchers in the use of analysis packages and databases and various analytical procedures and tests, supervising analyses, performing analyses. In addition, the position will share with other members of the Statistical Group responsibility for the selection, development, maintenance and curation of databases to hold large volumes of expression profiling data and the selection and maintenance of current bioinformatics tool and resources.
