Thanks to everyone who turned up to our second talk, the Immunology of Leprosy by the wonderful Dr Sara Atkinson of the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. We got a brilliant turnout despite the cold and the talk was excellent!
For those that weren’t able to make it, Sara has kindly allowed us to provide you with a copy of the lecture slides:
The Immunology of Leprosy – Dr Sara Atkinson
Leprosy is a chronic bacterial disease affecting mainly skin and nerves. If untreated, there can be progressive and permanent damage to the skin, nerves, limbs and eyes. Worldwide, two to three million people are estimated to be permanently disabled because of leprosy, mostly in tropical and subtropical worlds with the majority of cases found in India, Brazil and Burma.
