Dr Dave Bartley

Dave is a researcher at the Moredun Research Institute, and his current research interests focus on improving diagnostics and control strategies for nematode infections of ruminants. His current projects include; the development and dissemination of anthelmintic resistance in Nematodirus battus; the development and generation of genomic resources for sequencing applying markers of anthelmintic resistance in the field to assess the effectiveness and impact of different control strategies on worm populations and the translation of results to relevant stakeholders; the factors that influence farmer’s attitudes and behaviours with respect to nematode control and identifying and characterisation monepantel resistance.
