An exploration of gastropod-borne parasites with a focus on intestinal schistosomiasis in Biomphalaria snails inhabiting the Great African Lakes

Gastropod-borne parasitic diseases are a significant concern for public health all over the world, but particularly in developing countries. Many species of terrestrial and freshwater gastropods serve as the intermediate host for various parasites with medical and/or veterinary significance. One suc...
