@WST
I was born in Germany, lived in Luxembourg until I was 18, then studied in Germany and Italy, later worked and lived in Scotland and England, so it’s a bit of a mixMATOMO_URL The UK for historical reasons has one of the largest Parasitology research communities and this is why I ended up working in a foreign country for the past 13 years. There’s a lot going on here in terms of good Parasitology Research , but we do need more. In some countries, Parasitology is coming out of fashion, which is a dangerous development!
*If I was eligible to vote on the 23rd of June, guess what I would vote?

Hi WST, I am from Newcastle upon Tyne in the North East of England – despite the poor performance of our football team (!), it’s a fantastic place to grow up and I love going back to visit. After Newcastle, I moved to Uganda, then studied up in Edinburgh in Scotland, then York and now London, so I always seem to be moving 🙂
One of the best things about science is that it is really international community, with researchers from all over the world coming to the UK and people from the UK working elsewhere, whilst everyone is also very communicative online too.
