Interesting subject. An episode of House MD "Fidelity" which appeared in the 1st season dealt with the disease and led me to want to know more. Thanks for the video.
Thank you very much for this very informative and interesting video. I really enjoy watching. I have one comment or question about minute 33:24. Dr. Despommier mentions that almost all east African tsetse flies are infected. I learned recently in Tanzania (e.g. Kilimanjaro Christian medical center - big referral hospital) that cases are extremely rare, also because just very few Tsetse flies would be infected. I also do understand your reasoning in the video. Now I wonder what is true. Is there evidence that most flies are infected?
Thankyou very much for these lectures..they are so interesting and easy to understand. Its like hearing a story and not just studying. I wish we had more of such lectures in other medical subjects too. Thankyou to both professors for such vivid explanations..I think I m going to remember about these parasites for life! 😊👍👍
The guy who named it a Shanker is that rare academic who got laid plenty in high school lol. Most Stem people would have called it a Pointioplatamortimus or something. Lol
Quite interesting! I've been working on African trypanosomiasis and tsetse for 14+ years.
East is east, and west is west, but the two do meet. (1:05)
6:36 Life cycle.
17:00 Molecular biology.
22:00 Clinical progression.
30:20 Treatment.
This was such a great lecture for an ignorant engineer like me. It totally changed my view on Africa and the struggles people there have.
Yeah I legitimately believe this disease alone has held back development in Africa for millennia, maybe more than malaria.
Very interesting presentation on how tsetse fly play a role of transmitting trypanosomiasis to individuals particularly to Africa continent.

Can you clarify how we can differentiate Leishmania ulcer from Trypanosoma chancre please?
Amazing lecture as always, but we can just talk about the closed captions that the autogenerated phrase for "tsetse fly" is "sexy fly"
