DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3383
Abstract: Parasites can harm hosts and influence populations, communities, and ecosystems. However, parasites are reciprocally affected by population- and community-level dynamics. Understanding feedbacks between infection dynamics and larger scale epidemiological and ecological processes could improve predictions… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jfineco.2020.11.002
Abstract: We model endogenous technology adoption and competition among liquidity providers with access to High-Frequency Trading (HFT) technology. HFT technology provides speed and informational advantages. Information advantages may restore excessively toxic markets. Speed technology may reduce… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2116512119
Abstract: Significance Predicting how ecological interactions among vectors or intermediate hosts of human parasites influence transmission potential to humans remains challenging. Here, we focus on human schistosomiasis and demonstrate how resource competition among snails profoundly alters… read more here.
