Parasite - an organism that lives in or on another organism (the host) and Phylogenetic tree of life benefits by deriving nutrients at host's expense Impact on humanity Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) affect more than 1 billion people. 11/18 NTDs are parasites. Impact hardest on poor, developing countries. decreased health
