About
Giulio Grandi is a veterinary parasitologist whose research focuses on the epidemiology, control, and production impacts of parasitic infections in livestock, particularly dairy cattle. His work is centered on understanding how parasites like *Fasciola hepatica* (the liver fluke) affect animal health and farm economics, with a strong emphasis on evidence-based management strategies. A notable contribution is his study on selective flukicide treatment of non-lactating cows in Swedish dairy herds, which demonstrated the production benefits of targeted parasite control. This research, published in 2020 and cited 5 times, provides practical insights for reducing economic losses while minimizing anthelmintic use—a key concern in sustainable agriculture. Grandi’s work bridges veterinary science and farm management, offering data-driven solutions to improve both animal welfare and productivity. His findings are particularly relevant for temperate regions where liver fluke is endemic, and they support the development of region-specific control programs. By integrating parasitology with production metrics, Grandi helps farmers and veterinarians make informed decisions, advancing the field of veterinary epidemiology and contributing to the global effort to combat parasitic diseases in livestock.
