Hello World!


We are about to embark on our first lab voyage to our field site in Irrua, Nigeria, where we have been quickly building a Lassa diagnostic, treatment and research center.

Our collaborator, and main man in Nigeria, Christian Happi will open is lab and his home to Kristian Andersen, or first bio-lab experienced post-doc, and Shari Grossman, research assistant, and mathematician extraordinaire and me, the project manager. We will be joined later by geneticist post-doc Elinor Karlsson.

This is where we will share our adventure with the world (mostly our parents) so please check in every once in a while for videos, pictures and , hopefully, exciting stories.
