About
Joseph Turner is a Professor of Infection Biology at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine in the United Kingdom. His research focuses on filarial nematodes, exploring the genetic diversity linked to neo-X chromosomes, the effects of anti-Wolbachia drugs, and the immune response to adult nematode infections. He has published extensively on lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis persistence, and the viability of filarial worms in various experimental models.
