Moira joined the Animal Virology Group at Murdoch University in 2001, when she first migrated to Australia after completing her PhD in the Pathology Department of the Royal Veterinary College, investigating the tropism and viral variation of bovine viral diarrhoea virus in cattle. Her research interests are in viral tropism and pathogenesis which are areas that the Jembrana disease virus (JDV) research group is now investigating. Moira was part of the team that developed a recombinant protein vaccine to help control the spread of Jembrana disease which is currently being tested in a safety trial in Bali cattle in Indonesia.
