Georg von Samson-Himmelstjerna is a Professor and Managing Director at the Institute of Parasitology and Tropical Veterinary Medicine within the Department of Veterinary Medicine at Free University of Berlin. His leadership position at this prominent research institute places him at the forefront of veterinary parasitology research in Europe. His research interests span multiple critical areas in veterinary parasitology: Parasitology and Tropical Veterinary Medicine Anthelmintic resistance mechanisms and monitoring Diagnostic methods for gastrointestinal nematodes Control strategies for helminth infections in livestock Zoonotic parasite transmission Analysis of his extensive publication record (spanning from 1996 to 2025 with over 250 PubMed-listed articles) reveals an evolving research trajectory from fundamental studies on drug resistance mechanisms toward more comprehensive approaches addressing sustainable parasite control in changing environmental and agricultural contexts. His recent work demonstrates particular focus on molecular diagnostic techniques, resistance monitoring in ruminants, and adapting control strategies to climate change impacts. As Managing Director of the Institute, he oversees both research activities and diagnostic services for veterinary parasites, as evidenced by the institute's fee schedule for diagnostic services. The institute also participates in international humanitarian initiatives such as the 'Scholars at risk' program, which supports researchers who must flee their home countries, indicating his commitment to global scientific collaboration and academic freedom.
