Advances in Parasitology: Advances in Parasitology, cartea 97

David Rollinson, Russell Stothard
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 mar 2017
Advances in Parasitology presents the latest developments in the field of parasitology. It covers topics such as Chagas Disease Diagnostic Applications, The Role of Spatial Statistics in the Control and Elimination of Neglected Tropical Diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa, and Host–Parasite Relationships and Life Histories of Trypanosomes in Australia. Specific chapters delve into targeting parasites to suppress malaria transmission and a focus on neglected tropical diseases, such as Trypanosomiasis, Schistosomiasis and Lymphatic Filariasis. This series includes medical studies of parasites of major influence, such as Plasmodium falciparum and trypanosomes, as well as reviews of more traditional areas, such as zoology, taxonomy and life history.

Recenzii

"....Taken together, the chapters of this volume were written in a way that will initiate and amplify progressive research on parasitic helminths, propelling the discipline forward. This book is an excellent tool for students with an interest in parasitology, medical and veterinary professionals, public health officials, and others who have general interest in global health and the human-animal interface, and makes a strong argument for amplifying the parasitic helminth workforce due to the translational and scalable findings that could be applied globally." --The Quarterly Review of Biology
