Malaria history lectures

Staffordshire University biologist Angela Priestman is to present a series of lectures on the history of malaria after securing £30,000 of funding. 

Dr Priestman has teamed up with writer and actor Christine Watkins for three lectures exploring the malaria research of poet-scientist Ronald Ross in the late 19th Century alongside research to combat the disease. 

The performance takes place at The Courtyard Theatre in Hereford from Thursday February 7 to Saturday February 9.
