BIOL 514L - Physiology of Parasitism Lab

Units: 1

Provides hands-on experience in techniques currently used to study host-parasite physiology. Students will design and perform experiments that illustrate central topics of host-parasite associations. Subjects will change as the field develops, but may include studies of susceptibility, infection intensity, time to clear parasites and physiological effects of parasites on host life history. Focuses mainly on macroparasites and their vertebrate and invertebrate hosts.
