New research paper from the @MacLeod_Group in @eLife : The skin is a hidden reservoir of African Trypanosomes dx.doi.org/10.7554/eLife.177…
Great to see recognition for the amazing public engagement projects going on @UofGMVLS! Well done to the Parasite Street Science team for their award. This project uses street theatre to engage with communities about sleeping sickness, both in Africa and the UK.
