Towards an ecology of AIDS: research on HIV/AIDS at Oxford

“…Thus, this initiative was taken within the programme for Medical Anthropology, which since its inception six years ago, has aimed to enhance understanding between the social and biological sciences within the medical field. Senior researchers of each relevant research unit/field working on HIV/AIDS within the University of Oxford outline within this Handbook in a one-page summary the intellectual projects the respective field is engaged in, starting with the very basic and big questions; then proceeding to the question whether, and if, how research on HIV/AIDS has transformed the field; and finally, communicating what the contribution of HIV/AIDS research at Oxford is to the research worldwide on HIV/AIDS within the respective field.…”

The biology of kinetoplastid parasites: insights and challenges from genomics and post-genomics. by Gull, K

“…Kinetoplastid parasites exhibit a rich and diverse biology which mirrors many of the most interesting topics of current interest and study in the broader biological sciences. These evolutionarily ancient organisms possess intriguing mechanisms for control of gene expression, and exhibit complex patterns of cell morphogenesis orchestrated by an internal cytoskeleton. …”
