Dr. Mark W. Jackwood is a Professor in the College of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Avian Medicine, at the Poultry Diagnostic and Research Center, University of Georgia, Athens GA. He earned his Ph.D. degree in the Department of Poultry Science at The Ohio State University. Dr. Jackwood is a Molecular Virologist and his primary area of research is the study of avian coronaviruses. Specifically he works with infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), a coronavirus that causes an upper-respiratory disease in chickens, and turkey coronavirus (TCoV) an enteric disease in turkeys, which is also associated with poult enteritis mortality syndrome (PEMS). Dr. Jackwood’s work involves the use of molecular techniques for the identification, characterization, and control of those viruses.
