Chapter 16 is where the stable isotopes are in case you were wondering! It's a good resource for parasitologists who may be interested in applying SI techniques to parasite-host relationships. link.springer.com/chapter/10.100…

The wait is over!!! Our Open Access book on Aquatic Parasitology was just published! 23 Chapters, 202 illustrations in 662 pages full of everything you ever wanted to know about the amazing world of marine & freshwater parasites. Download your copy here: link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

Today, on the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we celebrate the incredible contributions of women and girls in STEM and highlighting our incredible DeadlyScience Ambassadors – inspiring First Nations women who are breaking barriers and leading the way in STEM.

Last days to submit an abstract for the Netherlands Annual Ecology Meeting (Feb2025)! Join @AntoineGuiguet @BornTorrijos & me (plus others not on X) in “The mutualism-parasitism continuum in ecology” session. Here’s to seeing you there!🤩 @NERN_network nern.nl/NAEM2025

"Parasites are Everywhere. Why Do So Few Researchers Study Them?" from Smithsonian Magainze. smithsonianmag.com/science-nature…

Very excited to announce that we are now looking for a PhD candidate to explore a poorly known but potentially crucial component of the marine phosphorus cycle: workingat.nioz.nl/o/phd-position… Attracted to ocean-going research and innovative lab work? This is the PhD for you!

Interested in working on the most intriguing group of parasites in fish (myxozoans)?! Join our growing team and apply new molecular tools to understand #hematophagy in #S_molnari - please RT!: vetmeduni.ac.at/fileadmin/v/z/…

Congratulations to Rosa Jolma who just published the first paper of her PhD project! "Warming effects on the life cycles of two parasitic copepods with different invasion histories" #openaccess in @Ecol_Evol onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…

Our new Concepts & Synthesis paper in Ecology is now online! "Effects of predation risk on parasite–host interactions and wildlife diseases" #OpenAccess : doi.org/10.1002/ecy.43…

But we did manage to collect some data on a few breeding females. Enough to get an idea of how they incubate and when they shade the eggs because of sunlight and high temperatures. Have a look at the paper!

New paper published! A great collaboration with @kiwi_sjc "Open-cup nesters in the Kalahari: Incubation and egg-shading behaviour in passerines cannot be detected with temperature dataloggers during hot periods". authors.elsevier.com/a/1ixlqVu805qAF 👇

"We should include parasites when unraveling a food web". Always happy to talk about the impact of parasites, this time for an interview at NewScientistNL (in Dutch only). @NIOZatSea

No Hematodinium infections in the Wadden Sea? Check out our new paper in Marine Biology: "Lack of Hematodinium microscopic detection in crustaceans at the northern and southern ends of the Wadden Sea and an update of its distribution in Europe." tinyurl.com/4e38f7jk

We commemorate today the International Day of Women and Girls in Science by talking to students from @escueslassj about the challenges for women and how to reach gender equity in science 🧬 🔬🥼👩‍🔬👧 @NIOZatSea @MSCActions @javieririmia
