Eric Morgan qualified in 1997 and after a short period in mixed practice completed a PhD at the University of Warwick in the United Kingdom on parasite epidemiology and ecology, joining Bristol Veterinary School in 2003. There he further developed research interests in parasite transmission and sustainable control and taught parasitology to veterinary students, moving to Queen’s University Belfast in 2017. He is author or co-author of more than 150 peer-reviewed papers on this subject, many on helminths in grazing ruminants, and particularly seeks to understand the impact of weather and climate change on infection patterns and how these can be managed. As Diplomate of the European Veterinary Parasitology College and core group member of the international initiatives Combating Anthelmintic Resistance in Ruminants and the Livestock Helminth Research Alliance, he contributes to the development of sustainable parasite control strategies and their translation into practice, at UK and international levels.
