Dr Philip Skuce

My research interests relate to the sustainable control of helminth parasites (worms and fluke) in livestock. The diseases caused by these parasites are amongst the most important and prevalent endemic production-limiting diseases of livestock, and represent a significant constraint on efficient livestock production, both in the UK and globally. This involves research into novel diagnostics, vaccine studies and disease control strategies. I also have a specific interest in the monitoring and management of anthelmintic (wormer) resistance.

Dr George Russell

My long term interests focus on the relationship between sequence variation and protein function in relation to livestock disease.  I have studied the immune system of livestock species and genetic variation of pathogens for over 20 years and am interested in the molecular interactions between host and pathogen.

Professor Alasdair Nisbet

My research interests relate to the exploration and design of novel methods for controlling pests and parasites particularly through exploiting their unique physiology and their interactions with the host. I am Deputy Director at Moredun Research Institute and Theme A lead (Plant and animal disease and animal welfare).  Follow the links to find out more information about all of my research interests, activities and publications.
