My
catchy slogan, “Equal rights for parasites”, first appeared in
the public domain in 1990 in Nature.
Its most recent appearance was in 2017, 27 years later in the same
journal.
Here
is a bibliography of its published appearances over those years in my
articles.

A
Google search for “equal
rights for parasites” (quotes necessary) turns up numerous pages of
citations. This slogan is well entrenched in the scientific
literature. I certainly hope that it is heeded.
