Question: what is your favourite nasty disease to grow ?

Technically you can’t grow a disease. But you can grow the bacteria or bugs to cause an illness or disease. In the last few years the favourites that I have grown are Salmonella and Campylobacter (they can be found in under cooked foods and can cause food poisoning) and also Clostridium tetani (also known as tetanus) and Clostridium difficile which is what I work with now. Both of these are quite stinky!
