About

Helminthology is the scientific study of helminths, which are parasitic worms that inhabit various hosts, including humans, animals, and plants. This field explores the biology, ecology, evolution, and impact of these diverse organisms. Helminths encompass a wide range of species, including flatworms (flukes and tapeworms) and roundworms (nematodes), each with their unique adaptations and life cycles.

Helminthologists investigate topics such as parasite-host interactions, transmission modes, disease pathways, and control strategies. The study of helminthology is essential for understanding parasitic diseases, improving public health, and advancing veterinary medicine and agriculture. Helminthology contributes to the management of parasitic infections and the development of strategies to reduce their impact on human, animal, and ecosystem health.
