Dissecting transmission to understand parasite evolution

25 Mar 2025

Abstract excerpt

Parasite transmission is a complex, multi-stage process that significantly impacts host-parasite dynamics. Transmission plays a key role in epidemiology and virulence evolution, where it is expected to trade off with virulence. However, the extent to which classical models on virulence-transmission relationships apply in the real world is unclear. This insight piece proposes a novel framework that breaks...
