Dr Judy Hyde (nee Mitchell)
Lecturer in Clinical Diagnostic Research and Development
Department: Pathobiology and Population Sciences
Campus: Hawkshead
Research Groups: Host-Pathogen Interactions and Vaccinology, IRLFS (Research Programme)
Judy graduated with a 1st class BSc (Hons) degree in Biomedical Sciences from the University of the West of England, during which she spent a schollarship year working with Professor Ted Ross at the East Carolina School of Medicine on the development of DNA vaccines for influenza viruses. Judy completed her PhD on the epidemiology, genetic and antigenic characterisation of the novel ‘human matapnumovirus’ at the Health Protection Agency, under the supervision of Professor Maria Zambon, before joining the ºÚÁÏÉç as a post-doctoral virologist working with Professor Joe Brownlie to study the pathogeneisis of, and to develop a vaccine for, canine respiratory coronavirus. Judy now leads the microbiology research within this interdisciplinary team. Judy also has an active interest in the development of novel molecular diagnostics for veterinary medicince.
Judy’s research interests are in new and emerging infectious diseases. She has previously worked on a number of respiratory viruses including influenza, human metapneumovirus and other paramyxoviruses. Her current focus is on understanding the role of viruses in the pathogenesis of canine infectious respiratory disease (CIRD); a multifactorial disease complex of dogs involving many different viral and bacterial agents; with a view to developing new and efficacious vaccines. Recently Judy has been working on a number of new and emerging viruses in this area and in other companion animal species, in particular canine corona-, hepaci- and pneumo- viruses. Judy also has an interest in developing novel molecular diagnostics for use in veterinary medicine and currently supervises a number of PhD projects in these combined areas.
