TrypsClub brings together trypanosomatid researchers to discuss recent publications and get to know our international community in an open and encouraging environment. It is aimed at PhD students, research assistants, technicians, postdocs, and junior fellows.

Career Talks are an excellent opportunity to get to know scientists in the field, learn from their experience and gain valuable insights into shaping your scientific career. We warmly encourage you to ask questions in the Q&A session — this is your chance to engage directly with the speaker.

Format:
· 5-minutes introduction to TrypsClub
· 25-minutes career talk by Julius Lukeš
· 30-minutes Q&A
· Optional: Feedback round + networking

By integrating genomic analysis of monomorphic field isolates with laboratory selection for monomorphism, we highlight the molecular trajectory underlying life cycle simplification and discuss the implications for disease transmission, virulence, and vector control strategies.
