Biography
Marc’s research interest lies in the development of in-vitro cultures to study parasite-host interactions in veterinary species in tandem with reverse vaccinology approaches to identify novel vaccine antigens. Current projects include organoid cultures to identify invasion mechanisms of the gastrointestinal parasitic nematodes in ruminants and developing and oral vaccine against salmon lice to provide sustainable Solutions in the Scottish Aquaculture Industry. Another interest is the implementation of Virtual Reality as a tool to visualise scientific outcomes in public engagement efforts.
