Over two thirds of all human infectious diseases have their origins in animals. The rate at which these zoonotic diseases have appeared in people has increased over the past 40 years, with at least 43 newly identified outbreaks since 2004. In 2012, outbreaks included Ebola in Uganda (see Ebola bo...

The QM protein has been reported to have roles in both tumour suppression and transcription factor regulation in vertebrate cells, and in ribosome stability in both yeast and mammals. The present study isolated the QM gene of Trypanosoma brucei and determined its sequence. Alignment with QM seque...

We have carried out a study of risk factors for early detection of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense sleeping sickness. Records of sleeping sickness patients from 1987 to 2001 from Tororo and Busia districts in Uganda were reviewed for their village of origin and clinical stage (early or late). All...

For those with sleeping sickness, the consequences of delayed diagnosis include poor prognosis at treatment and an increased risk of tsetse infection. Data on their socio–demographic and clinical characteristics, health-seeking behaviour and delays in presentation and diagnosis were collected fro...

Zoonotic diseases will maintain a high level of public policy attention in the coming decades. From the spectre of a global pandemic to anxieties over agricultural change, urbanization, social inequality and threats to natural ecosystems, effectively preparing and responding to endemic and emergi...
