Parasitology

It was a great week.  The highlight was a parasitology course at the Military University. It was exceptional, again another highly knowledgeable instructor who had traveled extensively and seen all sorts of unusual diseases. For a little taste...

WARNING, not for the faint of heart.

This is why i just love tropical medicine.  We got to learn about all sorts of nasty, hungry parasites, see lots of disgusting pictures and look at poop all afternoon.  I just wanted to share.

So, as i was previously saying, I hope every one of you will plan a visit to wonderful W Africa, so you can experience some of these joys in person ;)
