Research Methods
Working at the intersection of parasitology, chronobiology, and evolutionary ecology, our research asks: what makes a successful parasite and what are their evolutionary limits? We uncover the sophisticated strategies that malaria parasites possess, such as optimizing the balance between transmission and replication, strategic investment in each sex of transmission stages, and scheduling activities according to the time of day.
