PARASITOLOGY

About this Course

This course is designed to give a broad overview of general human and animal parasitology, with respect to the types of parasites, nature of parasitism, advantages and disadvantages of parasitism. It will cover the biology, parasitism and pathogenesis of the parasitic protozoans, helminths and arthropod parasites that cause significant human and animal disease. This subject covers on how each parasite establishes infection in their hosts, how it spreads between hosts, and the pathogenesis of disease. Current approaches to control and to treat parasitic disease will be addressed. Parasitology is a subject that requires a good deal of memorization and specialized terminologies.
