Paper 19: Schmid-Hempel 2009. Parasites—the new frontier: celebrating Darwin 200.

Paper 23 had nice figs, readable prose, solid science, and for me, PhD nostalgia: "Going through the motions: incorporating movement analyses into disease research"
We study movement.
We study disease. Let’s do
both at the same time.#260papers #scihaikuhttps://t.co/cqMhbAAe2N— Skylar Hopkins (@parasiteecology) February 23, 2018
Paper 25 was Frainer et al.'s "Parasitism and the Biodiversity-Functioning Relationship". Good, but…
This paper was not
'bout psite diversity
and function. I'm sad.#260papers #scihaiku https://t.co/QpHt4E7Ag0— Skylar Hopkins (@parasiteecology) March 3, 2018
Paper 28 was Huver et al. 2015 in Ecological Applications.
You can detect worm
DNA in pond water.

Paper 31 of #260papers was a re-read of Lafferty 2011 in Bulletin of Marine Science.
"The naked fleshly larvae become prey." – KDL #sciquote
I should probably
reread all of K. Lafferty's
pubs every year. #scihaikuhttps://t.co/M7aHPatsmd— Skylar Hopkins (@parasiteecology) March 17, 2018
