Parasites are clever creatures that have evolved to invade all reaches, including the human body. We will discuss the basic biology, morphological features, life cycles, modes of reproduction, host-parasite interactions, methods of transmission, and pathology of parasites. Emphasis will be on human parasites worldwide, but especially those that will be encountered in Alaska.
