Research summary
AI-generated

Josh Richards conducts medical research spanning two distinct areas: the immunology of parasitic worm (helminth) infections and how they influence the immune signaling molecule IL-33, and clinical vision science including contact lenses and myopia (nearsightedness) control. The work combines laboratory studies of immune cells and molecules with clinical assessments of eye health and treatments. Some publications also address skin conditions such as psoriasis and their responses to biologic drugs.
