Some very impressive results from trials of a Canadian vaccine trialled in Guinea where the material seemed to offer 100% protection (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-33733711). It has been suggested by the WHO that this might be a 'game changer', preventing further catastrophic outbreaks of the disease in Africa. It shows what can be done when modern technology is applied to conditions more important than male hair loss.
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
