JOB SUMMARY
The candidate will be involved in a new project looking at the prevalence of Fasciola (liver flluke) in Central Viet Nam.

This project is being run by OUCRU, Queen's University Belfast, UK and Institute of Malariology, Parasitology, Entomology Quy Nhon.
Fasciola was thought of in the past as a mainly animal disease problem and humans were a small secondary host but now there are -6000 human cases of liver fluke/year in central Viet Nam. Treatment failures are also starting to become a problem in humans. This shows it is still an impportant animal disease but it has now become an important human disease and requires a concerted effort to study this disease in both animals and humans.
