Courses and supervision at The Influenza Centre
Teaching and Research training are integral activities at the Influenza Center.
The Influenza Centre supervises bachelor, masters and doctoral students conducting influenza and vaccinology research. Prospective postgraduate students wishing to complete the research segment of their degree with The Influenza Centre should contact Professor Rebecca Cox.
The Centre actively contributes to teaching in Virology, Immunology and Vaccinology of undergraduate and postgraduate (masters and Ph.D.) students in medicine, pharmacy, cell biology and molecular biology.
The courses offered for research training are the HUVIR301 Virology and HUVIR320 Vaccinology.
