The latest Tsetse and Trypanosomiasis Information bulletin is now available on the web. Published twice a year by FAO, the bulletin contains news and publication abstracts, aiming to collate and disseminate current information on all aspects of tsetse and trypanosomiasis research and control to institutions and individuals involved in the problems of African trypanosomiasis (a vector-borne disease affecting people and animals caused by various species of blood parasites called trypanosomes). The bulletin commonly includes items involving applications of polymerase chain reaction methods and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to the disease. See the latest 121-page bulletin (in English and French) or contact [email protected] to subscribe to the bulletin.
