The following three papers are a very small window onto the types of research being pursued by members of the American Association of Veterinary Parasitologists. They are related by the fact that newer areas in the biology of parasites and their hosts are discussed. The first paper by Dr. Tom Klei, gives a brief view of the interactions between host and parasite of the fascinating organism Wolbachia, a parasite of parasites. The second paper by Dr. Gloria Solano-Aguilar addresses the use of probiotics to alter the host–parasite interface and influence host resistance. The final paper by Dr. Lou Gasbarre outlines an example of integration of the genomics revolution into Veterinary Parasitology. While the subjects are diverse, they demonstrate the vitality of the AAVP.
以下三篇论文仅展示了美国兽医寄生虫学家协会成员所从事的研究类型的一个很小的窗口。它们的相关性在于讨论了寄生虫及其宿主生物学的新领域。第一篇论文由 Tom Klei 博士撰写，简要介绍了迷人的寄生虫沃尔巴克氏体与宿主之间的相互作用，沃尔巴克氏体是寄生虫的寄生虫。第二篇论文由 Gloria Solano-Aguilar 博士撰写，探讨了使用益生菌来改变宿主-寄生虫界面并影响宿主抗性。最后一篇论文由 Lou Gasbarre 博士概述了将基因组学革命融入兽医寄生虫学的一个例子。虽然主题多样，但它们展示了 AAVP 的活力。
