Parasites are a major cause of death and suffering in humans and animals throughout the world. The ARC Research Network for Parasitology aims to bring together Australia's finest researchers and establish a world class environment and web of facilities that attracts and retains the most talented young investigators and places Australia in a strong position to deal with current and future parasitological threats. The Network will focus and enhance Australia's fundamental, strategic and applied parasitology research capabilities to : (1) develop new approaches to vaccination; (2) identify novel drug targets; and (3) ensure the sustainability of wildlife and ecosystem health.

寄生虫是全世界人类和动物死亡和痛苦的主要原因。ARC寄生虫学研究网络旨在汇集澳大利亚最优秀的研究人员，建立一个世界级的环境和设施网络，吸引并留住最有才华的年轻研究人员，并使澳大利亚在应对当前和未来寄生虫威胁方面处于有利地位。该网络将侧重并加强澳大利亚的基本、战略和应用寄生虫学研究能力，以便： (1)开发新的疫苗接种方法; (2)确定新的药物靶点;以及 (3)确保野生动物和生态系统健康的可持续性。
