About

Robert Hirt is a Professor of Evolutionary Parasitology at Newcastle University, UK. His research focuses on the interplay between parasitic organisms and their hosts, as evidenced by his recent articles on various protozoa, including Trichomonas species and their interactions with bacteria. His work also encompasses topics such as intracellular parasitism, autophagy, and the evolutionary conservation of symbiotic relationships.
