May 2023 | Field trip to Kisumu, Kenya

Prof. Tim Anderson, Dr. Frédéric Chevalier, and Dr. Winka Le Clec'h visited their collaborator, Dr. Eric Ndombi, and his team at KEMRI for a ten-day workshop. They taught the Kenyan team how to prepare DNA libraries from pools of miracidia for next-generation sequencing and learned how to catch snails in the field for microbiome sampling.
