Contents
Interest in the ecology of macro- and microparasites has increased
exponentially over the last few decades. We now know that parasites
can not only regulate host populations, but also determine the
structure of communities and whole ecosystems. Our aim is to
use state of the art literature to conceive and design a series
of lectures (one/participant) in which these developments are
critically discussed. Emphasis will be placed on topics which
are of particular interest to the department such as globalization,
invading species, vectors and vector-borne diseases, disease-vector-host
interactions, epidemiology, population variation and regulation,
community structure and speciation processes.
