Erich Schwarz is an Assistant Research Professor in the Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics at Cornell University. His research focuses on comparative nematode genomics to understand the fundamental biology of parasitic diseases. Over the course of his career, he has been involved in significant projects aimed at addressing zoonotic diseases, particularly those caused by hookworms such as Ancylostoma ceylanicum and Necator americanus. Dr. Schwarz is dedicated to defining vaccine targets for these parasitic worms and identifying host-specificity genes. His work includes the investigation of immunologically-regulated genes in the model hookworm Nippostrongylus brasiliensis, contributing valuable insights to the field of parasitology and immunogenetics. With a commitment to advancing our understanding of parasitic diseases, his research has far-reaching implications for public health and disease control.
