Profile of Mr Jacob Leonard
I am a second year PhD student, previously working on nematodes, specifically immunomodulation with Necator americanus, later moving to Panagrellus redivivus as a potential model organism to study any immunoregulatory proteins further. Currently, my focus is on the rumen fluke Calicophoron daubneyi in the agricultural sector, with a focus on the extracellular vesicle interactions with the host's microbiome.
