JOINT<br />

APPOINTMENTS<br />

at the IMB<br />

The purpose of joint appointments is<br />

to foster collaborations in teaching,<br />

research and related activities<br />

between the IMB and Schools of The<br />

<strong>University</strong> of Queensland.<br />

Joint appointments involve a split<br />

in salary between the IMB and the<br />

relevant UQ School, and a joint<br />

appointee’s commitment to the<br />

research and teaching activities at<br />

the IMB is greater than that of affiliate<br />

appointees.<br />

Joint appointees participate in<br />

all <strong>Institute</strong> activities, including<br />

laboratory research, supervision of<br />

research higher degree students, and<br />

attendance at seminars, Divisional<br />

meetings and IMB Group Leader<br />

retreats.<br />

Joint appointees in <strong>2010</strong> were<br />

Professor Alan Mark and<br />

Professor Geoffrey McLachlan.<br />

LINDA LUA AND PANG CHUAN:<br />

BOUQUET<br />

A virus is a piece of mosaic art<br />

perfected by Nature. The viral<br />

shell is made up of hundreds<br />

of copies of identical protein<br />

molecules arranged in a highly<br />

sophisticated pattern, giving<br />

a unique architecture <strong>for</strong> each<br />

type of virus. A close- up of<br />

the computer- generated three<br />

dimensional structure of a mouse polyomavirus<br />

particle is shown here. In the background, an<br />

assemblage of electron micrographs depicting viral<br />

shells constructed at UQ.
