Applied Parasitology focuses on the practical aspects of studying parasites and their impact on human health, animals, and ecosystems. It involves the identification, control, and management of parasitic diseases, including those caused by protozoa, helminths, and ectoparasites. This field combines laboratory research with fieldwork to develop strategies for diagnosing and treating parasitic infections, understanding parasite life cycles, and controlling their spread. Applied Parasitologists work in various settings, including healthcare, veterinary medicine, and environmental science, aiming to mitigate the effects of parasitic diseases and improve public and animal health.
