National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) Participates in New One Health Initiative

By Eddy Ball
June 2009

Please see link:

http://www.niehs.nih.gov/news/newsletter/2009/june/health.cfm

Notice: Important online Journal available – “Parasites and Vectors”

Please see link: http://www.parasitesandvectors.com/

Editor-in-Chief: Chris Arme, DSc

“Parasites & Vectors expands upon the scope of two former BioMed Central publications, Kinetoplastid Biology and Disease and Filaria Journal, both of which ceased publication in December 2007. Authors working in the areas covered by these journals are encouraged to submit their work to Parasites & Vectors. The full archives of these two journals remain available from the Kinetoplastid Biology and Disease and Filaria Journal websites and PubMed Central.

The average time from manuscript submission to a first decision is 17 days.”

“Dr. Chris Arme is a parasitologist whose research interests are in the physiology of tapeworms, with particular emphasis on their nutrition and how these parasites interact with the physiological systems of their hosts. Since his doctoral studies at Leeds University he has maintained a special interest in the tapeworm, Ligula intestinalis, and its interactions with the reproductive systems of its fish host. In recognition of this work he was awarded a DSc from Keele University and a DSc honoris causa from the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Bratislava. He is a Past-President of the British Society for Parasitology and was an Editor of Parasitology for 19 years. He is now Editor-in-Chief of the online open access journal Parasites & Vectors.”
