Sorry not to have Rivka Lim here too in person, but Prof. Poppy Lamberton is currently giving an excellent presentation on the often lack of association between current S. mansoni infection status and morbidity in Uganda. British Society for Parasitology 2024
Wonderful presentation now here British Society for Parasitology 2024 by our Cheikh Fall, all the way from Senegal - presenting the unique morbidities observed in children and adults infected with Schistosoma spp and their hybrids.
I wish, I could come first if I was there, as this topic -contribution of helminth infections (intestinal worms) to stunting, caught my attention since the last 5 years! All the best to you Isobel Gabain & Webster Research Group
Do come visit the excellent poster no.31 by Isobel Gabain here British Society for Parasitology 2024 illustrating her exciting novel Bayesian network analyses examining potential associations between helminth infection and childhood stunting.
Really enjoyed talks from my supervisors British Society for Parasitology. Amy Pedersen speaking about affects of #nutrition on parasite infection and vaccine efficacy and Webster Research Group highlighting the importance of #schisto lifecycle in a zoonotic context. So cool - wish I was there!!
Impressive and exciting opening to British Society for Parasitology 2024 with Adrian Hill presenting progress in anti-malarial vaccine development.
