Nematodes are the most abundant animals on earth... they account for 4/5 land animals! The highest abundances are found in tundra which is the opposite of above-ground animals. Soil biota are so important and we need to know more... nature.com/articles/s4159…

Parasites do regulate immune systems of their human host. Does it have any implications with low COVID mortality in LMICs? An interesting hypothesis.. youtu.be/lVSqSPv61_k #parasites #COVID19 #NTDs

Super happy to share my first first-authored publication. ☺ It is about geostatistical modeling that could be useful in planning the elimination of river blindness in Ethiopia, in this case, a neglected tropical disease in Africa. #PLOSNTDs #modeling dx.plos.org/10.1371/journa…

New publication from the Nematode and Vector Genomics lab La Trobe Agriculture, Biomedicine & Environment ! Researchers in DRC, South Sudan, US, Australia, & Belgium sequenced >800 mitochondrial genomes to assess genetic diversity on the path to elimination of River blindness.

A large US-Australian study on COVID-19 has uncovered a genetic explanation as to why some people test positive but remain asymptomatic. Prof Stephanie Gras, who led the Australian contingent, it opens the way for better vaccines and treatments 💉 fal.cn/3A9Y8
