This science class about medical parasitology, taught by a former researcher in parasitology, explores a different Neglected Tropical Disease every week. Aimed at kids interested in biology and medicine
Class experience
US Grade 6 - 9
This is a biology course aimed at kids who have a keen interest in the natural science and medicine. A different parasitic Neglected Tropical Disease will be presented every week. We will discuss many aspects of the organism's biology, such as its general appearance, life-cycle, how it affects its host and the disease it causes. Many parasites are very specialized and have complicated life-cycles that illustrate the complexity of nature. Parasitic diseases are among the most important...
After taking the course, learners will have an understanding of what a parasite is. They will be able to explain in detail the biology and life history of the parasites they studied and will be familiar with the Neglected Tropical Diseases they cause and how this impacts humanity.
I have a doctorate in Parasitology and I am a former researcher who specialized in parasite genetics. I have several publications in scientific journals. I have taught Parasitology and other topics in Biology at University.
There may be some pictures of symptoms that could bother sensitive students. I try not to show shocking pictures so these have not been a problem for most learners.
