The concept of a pace‐of‐life syndrome describes inter‐and intraspecific variation in several
life‐history traits along a slow‐to‐fast pace‐of‐life continuum, with long lifespans, low …

When facing an emerging infectious disease of conservation concern, we often have little
information on the nature of the host‐parasite interaction to inform management decisions …

A narrative in ecology is that prey modify traits to reduce predation risk, and the trait
modification has costs large enough to cause ensuing demographic, trophic and ecosystem …

Understanding the effects of parasites on host behaviour, of host behaviour on parasite
infection, and the reciprocal interactions between these processes is vital to improving our …

Members of the Diplostomoidea mature in amniotes and employ vertebrates, annelids and
molluscs as second intermediate hosts. Diplostomoid life cycles generally follow a three …

Associating with conspecifics afflicted with infectious diseases increases the risk of
becoming infected, but engaging in avoidance behaviour incurs the cost of lost social …

It is often assumed that predators reduce disease prevalence and transmission by lowering
prey population density and/or by selectively feeding on infected individuals. However …

Symbionts tend to be aggregated on their hosts, such that few hosts harbor the majority of
symbionts. This ubiquitous pattern can result from stochastic processes, but aggregation …

The complexity of the physiological phenotype currently prevents us from identifying an
integrative measure to assess how the internal state and environmental conditions modify …

How infected hosts behave critically affects both their fitness and the transmission, and thus
fitness, of their parasites. Understanding host–parasite coevolution therefore requires …
