DESCRIPTION:More than a billion people worldwide live in communities at ri
 sk for soil transmitted helminth (STH) infection. These parasitic worms c
 ause significant morbidity\, especially in children and women of reproduc
 tive age\, who are vulnerable to anemia and malnutrition associated with 
 chronic infection. Despite decades of mass drug administration of benzimi
 dazole anthelminthics\, STH infections remain prevalent in many resource 
 limited settings\, including countries in sub-Saharan Africa\, South Asia
  and Latin America. This seminar will offer a critical appraisal of curre
 nt control methods\, with a particular focus on deworming effectiveness\,
  the potential for emerging drug resistance\, and the development of tool
 s to monitor control program impact and inform public health policy.\n\nS
