[AUSTRALIA] ELS MQRES Molecular Ecology of Cryptosporidium PhD Scholarship
[AUSTRALIA] ELS MQRES Molecular Ecology of Cryptosporidium PhD ScholarshipClosing Date: 18 April 2008
ELS MQRES Molecular Ecology of Cryptosporidium in Rural and Urban NSW
The incidence of cryptosporidiosis is rising in rural and urban NSW. Effective management and prevention of this disease requires knowledge, relevant to the Australian environment, of the contribution of Cryptosporidium species to human disease. A multi-disciplinary approach encompassing epidemiology, molecular biology and climatology will provide comprehensive knowledge of Cryptosporidium transmission cycles in humans in Australia. In partnership with NSW Health we will identify the risk factors associated with on-going transmission of cryptosporidiosis in regional areas, enabling NSW Health to develop effective management strategies for disease prevention in rural Australia. This project would particularly suit a candidate with a strong interest in microbiology, human health and diagnostics.
MQRES scholarships are available to Australian and international students. Applicants should have completed an Australian four-year undergraduate degree in a relevant discipline with first class honours, or demonstrate equivalent research qualifications from an Australian or overseas University. Candidates should have a background in microbiology, parasitology, molecular biology or epidemiology, and having the availability to undertake the required fieldwork for this project is essential.
The scholarship pays a living allowance currently $20,007 per annum, tax exempt (2008) and the tenure is a maximum 3.5 years full time, subject to satisfactory progress. Tuition fees will be funded for the scholarship tenure, with domestic students receiving Research Training Scheme (RTS) placement for their tuition, and International award holders having their fees sponsored.
