Dr. Dalan Bailey is a Group Leader working on the molecular biology of RNA viruses including human and bovine respiratory syncytial virus, as well as the morbilliviruses, specifically measles and peste des petits ruminants. His laboratory also researches more exotic pathogens such as Nipah virus.
Dalan is particularly interested in the virus-host interactions that take place during virus entry and exit. His focus lies in characterising the interplay between these viral processes, the cytoskeleton and innate immunity. Since 2005 he has published over 25 manuscripts in this area including publications in PLOS Pathogens, JBC and the Journal of Virology.
Dalan has presented his research data, as a speaker, at numerous national and international conferences including the: Microbiology Society’s Annual Conference, Negative Strand Virus Meeting, American Society for Virology, and International Union of Microbiological Societies. He is also committed to developing strong links with stakeholders outside of academia and has spent time working at the headquarters of the Food and Agriculture Organisation of The United Nations (FAO) in Rome.
Dalan is actively involved in research, lecturing and the supervision of junior researchers and in the last 5 years has supervised over 15 undergraduate and postgraduate students in his lab. Dalan is looking to expand his laboratory and is interested to hear from prospective PhD students with international scholarships who are looking for a supportive research environment for their research studies.
