We explore the interaction between African trypanosomes and their hosts using field based population studies, genomics, and lab-based molecular biology.

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.

⚽️ | Dr @WaltAdamson has arranged a pioneering kit sponsorship agreement between @WCIPGlasgow and Malawian football club Rumphi United.

A connection that began with a public engagement project now sees the WCIP logo appearing on the team's shirt.

We got Wellcome-@scotpenetwork funding!

Taking our Parasite Street Science project to Malawi: using street theatre to engage new audiences on our research. A fantastic collaboration with @SurgeScotland, @UoGSoLS, @WCIPGLASGOW, @KUHeS-mw, Malawi VOICES, and a giant tsetse fly.
