Welcome to the hidden world of Parasites: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-parasite-zoo
Parasites are everywhere and it is normal for animals, ourselves included, to be infected with them. Parasites are specially adapted to be able to live inside other animals, and in so doing they have had profound effects on their hosts' evolution.
In these lectures we'll meet the rich diversity of parasites, and their fascinating lives.
The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-parasite-zoo
Gresham College has been giving free public lectures since 1597. This tradition continues today with all of our five or so public lectures a week being made available for free download from our website. There are currently over 1,800 lectures free to access or download from the website.
