Using historical samples from a long-term population of Bluetits we have shown that there has been an increase in malaria infected birds, from 45% in 1996 to around 90%in late 2020s. This increase in transmission is driven by warmer spring temp during the nestling phase.

Climate‐Driven Increase in Transmission of a Wildlife Malaria Parasite Over the Last Quarter Century
Climate warming is shaping ecosystems in several ways, and this includes changes in the dynamics of wildlife disease transmission. Over 26 years, avian malaria parasites have become much more common ...

The third day of the #SummerSchool was entirely dedicated to the tissue stages of haemosporidians 🫀🧠🫁 Both #MelanieDuc and #TanjaHimmel did really a great job!!

Yesterday we had a great day learning about the haematology and blood parasites of amphibians 🐸 and reptiles 🐢🦎 with extraordinary lectures by Nubia Mata and Ed Netherland!
