Global Perspectives on Liver Fluke Epidemiology
30 Sep 2026
Special Issue on Global Perspectives on Liver Fluke Epidemiology
This forthcoming Special Issue in Parasitology (Cambridge University Press & Assessment) will explore the global landscape of liver fluke infections, from fundamental advances in biology and diagnostics to field-based epidemiology and control strategies.
While inspired by the Liver Fluke Symposium recently held at the 30th Conference of the World Association for the Advancement of Veterinary Parasitology (WAAVP 2025) in Curitiba, Brazil, this is an open call for papers and we invite contributions from researchers worldwide, whether or not they are participating in the meeting.
Submissions may include original research articles, reviews, and perspectives addressing key developments in Fasciola hepatica and Fasciola gigantica, including their transmission dynamics, host–parasite interactions, zoonotic potential, and impacts on animal health and productivity, particularly in the application of precision farming methods.
Submission deadline: 30th September 2026
