Save the Date for #ICOPA2026 WFP are thrilled to invite you to the 16th International Congress of Parasitology (ICOPA XVI), taking place in the vibrant city of Montréal, Canada, from August 16 to August 21, 2026. icopa2026.org

Meet Yaseen M.Salman AL_Glize || ياسين سلمان الكَليز who is a Ph.D. student at School of Biosciences, University of Kent. Research Focus: 🦠 Parasitic diseases under the #OneHealth 🦠 Epidemiology of intestinal protozoan parasites His work contributes to advancing our understanding of parasites & their impact on health! #Blastocystis

Today, we celebrate #WomenInScience! 👩‍🔬 A huge thank you to the incredible women in my lab School of Biosciences, University of Kent & collaborators for their dedication, expertise & leadership. Your work is shaping the future of science! #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience

Next Global Parasitology Seminar: Elizabeth Egan on Plasmodium & red cell, Mon 2/24 12pm EST. ⁦Women In Malaria⁩ ⁦British Society for Parasitology⁩ ⁦Trends in Parasitology⁩ ⁦Penn IGG⁩ ⁦Société Française de Parasitologie⁩ ⁦parasitesrule⁩ ⁦ASP-Parasitologists⁩ ⁦⁩ ⁦Aust Soc for Para⁩

It was my great pleasure and honour to give a presentation of our lab’s work at the local association of BFWG (The British Federation of Women Graduates)! We had a fantastic discussion about the roles of #microbes in health and disease! #blastocystis

We are excited to introduce Dr. Jakub Hurych, a clinical microbiologist and postdoctoral researcher at Charles University & Motol University Hospital, Czechia. Dr. Hurych’s research focuses on the human #gut #microbiome in chronic diseases and its interactions with #Blastocystis.

Our Action is featured by COST Association for its innovative #SciComm strategies! From Blastie the plush mascot to interactive social media, we’re making #OneHealth & #Blastocystis research more engaging & accessible! Read more: cost.eu/scicomm-onehea… #ScienceCommunication

As part of our Moore Foundation funded project on #Gregarines #symbiosis we are advertising an 18-months technician post in my Tsaousis LAB @ University of Kent 🇪🇺 at School of Biosciences, University of Kent ! Please spread the word! jobs.kent.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?i…

Meet Evren Tileklioglu, a researcher at Aydın Adnan Menderes University,Türkiye Research Focus: 🦠 Investigating the clinical significance of #Blastocystis subtypes in health & disease 🧬 Developing new diagnostic & antigen production strategies for medically important parasites

Today I had a super productive meeting with Nicola Segata at Segata Lab ! We discussed current and upcoming projects on #gutmicrobiome & #Blastocystis ! Many thanks to BlastocystisCOST for supporting my trip in Trento! #sciencewithoutborders

Had a fantastic visit to @PreBiomics today! Loved hearing about their microbiome sequencing tech & exploring ways to work together via our BlastocystisCOST ! Big potential here. 👇 #Blastocystis #OneHealth #Microbiome #Collaboration

Our #Blastocystis team is at Vienna for the ESCMID conference. Please come and find us at booth J21 to answer any questions about these peculiar and controversial eukaryotic parasites. #escmid2025 #ESCMIDGlobal

ESCMID Our team is working hard to get everything ready!!!

If you are attending the 2025 ESCMID conference, please come and see our J21 booth! You will get a free gift back if you answer a questionnaire on #Blastocystis! Spread the word!

If you're at #ESCMID2025 , swing by booth J21 – say hi, pick up a goodie bag, and fill out the WG1 questionnaire. Why does it matter? Because your insights help us understand and improve #Blastocystis research across Europe and beyond. #COSTAction #Microbiology ESCMID

🚨 New paper out! We analysed 248 studies across 63 countries to map the global prevalence of #Cryptosporidium in cattle. 🔬 C. parvum is dominant, posing serious #OneHealth risks. Big shoutout to MSc-R student Przemyslaw for his great work! 📖 doi.org/10.1016/j.crpv… risks.

Excited to share our new open-access paper in JSFA Reports: “Bridging Lab & Industry: Impact of a Bio-Conversion Unit on #BSFL Production & Microbiome” Congrats to William Edwards on his first Tsaousis LAB @ University of Kent 🇪🇺 paper. Read here 👉 doi.org/10.1002/jsf2.7… #Insectmicrobiome #AgTech

Success at our WG4 Workshop UNIC Health ! Thanks to our WG4 leadership for: vet paper/animal & human microbiome reviews/OA protocols/xenic culture study/DON’Ts guide. COST 📸 #COSTAction #Parasitology

📢 Our new preprint “Intestinal Protozoa at the Human, Animal and Environment Interface in Rural Iraq” explores protozoan prevalence & diversity across humans, livestock & environment in rural #Iraq. 👉 preprints.org/manuscript/202… #OneHealth #Parasitology #Preprint

Today we took advantage of the nice weather to go on a field trip to Folkestone to collect samples as part of our Moore Foundation project. Unfortunately we were not very successful, but we had lots fun 🤩!
