Parasites & Vectors is a peer-reviewed open-access medical journal published by BioMed Central. The journal publishes articles on the biology of parasites, parasitic diseases, intermediate hosts, vectors and vector-borne pathogens.[1] Parasites & Vector was established in 2008 as a merger of Filaria Journal and Kinetoplastid Biology, and its launch editor-in-chief was Chris Arme.[2] Since 2013 it has published an associated blog for the parasites and vectors community called BugBitten,[3] and it awards the 'Odile Bain Memorial Prize' (OBMP) to perpetuate the memory of the parasitologist Odile Bain who died in 2012.[4]
