| Abstract: | Humans are vulnerable to many infectious agents including parasites. Parasites can cause severe diseases in humans that range from Amebiasis to Malaria. In this course, parasites from protozoa to hookworms and their human diseases will be discussed. This class will focus on the organism’s life cycles, on how the immune system reacts to the parasitic infection and on current and potential therapies. For comparison, infection with and response to viral, bacterial, and fungal parasites will be reviewed. |
