American Society of Parasitologists

Founded in 1924, the American Society of Parasitologists comprises a diverse group of scientists from academia, industry, and government involved in the study and teaching of the scientific discipline of parasitology. Society members contribute to the development of parasitology as a discipline, as well as to primary research in behavior, biochemistry, ecology, immunology, medicine, molecular biology, physiology, systematics, and other related fields of science.

The society publishes a bimonthly peer-reviewed scientific journal, the Journal of Parasitology.
