The paper investigates immune variation in threespine stickleback populations by analyzing fibrosis responses to parasites and environmental factors.

This study uses ddPCR and Bayesian path analysis to link land-use changes to parasite dynamics in freshwater ecosystems, finding a positive correlation between deforestation and copepod density.

This study examines the fitness consequences of parasite exposure versus infection in copepods, finding that exposure to sympatric parasites incurs lower fitness costs than exposure to allopatric parasites.

The paper develops a droplet digital PCR assay to detect and quantify rare helminth parasites in environmental samples, demonstrating its sensitivity and applicability across multiple helminth systems.
