Autor

Dongyou Liu, PhD, undertook veterinary science education at Hunan Agricultural University, China, and postgraduate training at the University of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Over the past two decades, he worked at several research and clinical laboratories in Australia and the United States, focusing on molecular characterization and virulence determination of microbial pathogens, such as ovine foot rot bacterium, dermatophyte fungi and listeriae, and the development of nucleic acid-based quality assurance models for security-sensitive and emerging viral pathogens. In addition to authoring over 50 original research and review articles in various international journals, he has contributed to 140 book chapters and edited several books.
