Catch up with Dr John Graham Brown (University of Liverpool), Phillipa Page (NADIS) and Matt Colston (ELANCO) on their discussion around liver fluke control in sheep. Dr Graham Brown works with NADIS and SCOPS to calculate and predict the parasite and fluke forecast for the year ahead. He discusses the risks posed for this year and specific farm risks to consider for your farm. Matt and Phillipa discuss testing, management and treatment options for effective control on your farm. This event concluded with a Q&A session. This webinar was hosted by NADIS in association with Elanco. Dr John Graham-Brown, BVSc, MSc, PhD, MRCVS John graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2010. As part of his studies, he also completed a master’s degree in Veterinary Parasitology.
