New paper on host-parasite models

Mark, Cherie, Kate Langwig, Marm Kilpatrick, Hamish McCallum, published a new paper titled Integral Projection Models for host-parasite systems with an application to amphibian chytrid fungus that discusses how to use Integral Projection Models to model host-parasite systems. In a nutshell, these types of models bridge the gap between micro and macroparasite models and allow one to explicitly model the distribution of parasite loads across hosts in a population, allowing for a more accurate understanding of host-parasite dynamics.
