A step toward conservation: Livdahl receives $380,000 NIH grant for parasite dynamics research

Professor Todd Livdahl of Clark’s Department of Biology recently was awarded a three-year, $380,000 grant from the National Institutes of Health for his research titled “Community diversity and parasite dynamics.” This award will support Livdahl’s research on “host dilution,” a hypothesized relationship between the success of a disease and the number of species that the disease…
