Joseph Comber received his B.S. in Biology from Neumann University, his M.S. in Biology from Villanova University, and his Ph.D. in Immunology and Microbial Pathogenesis from Thomas Jefferson University. While completing his graduate degrees, he served as a teaching assistant in the anatomy and physiology course at Villanova University and as an instructor in anatomy and physiology laboratories at Neumann University. After finishing his Ph.D., he completed a postdoctoral fellowship in vaccine immunology, where his research focused on identifying T-cell epitopes generated during infection. He joined the faculty at Villanova University in 2014 and is currently an Associate Teaching Professor in the Biology Department. In this role he teaches anatomy and physiology for pre-health profession students, histology and human anatomy for Biology majors, and a course in vaccines and public perception for nonscience majors. Joseph is a two-time semifinalist for the Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching at Villanova University and serves on several departmental and college committees. He is a member of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS), the National Science Teaching Association, and the Society for College Science Teachers. When not in the classroom, Joseph enjoys coaching Little League baseball and spending time with his wife and son. See less
