Story
FIn the first ever collaboration of its kind, Friends of MSF societies from Manchester, Liverpool and London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine join together to present an exciting series of talks.
As COVID-19 continues to shape our daily lives, we are shifting our perspective to other infections - from TB and Ebola to malaria and neglected tropical diseases - which must not be overlooked.
Hearing from those who have worked for MSF, we will bring together a spectrum of different healthcare professionals to examine these infectious diseases in clinical and research contexts.
Whether you’re studying healthcare or not, the threat of infectious diseases has never been more relevant. So join us for 8 weekly talks, from 11th February - 4th April 2021 to find out how we can tackle this threat together.
