Prof Mayfong Mayxay, Dr Koukeo Phommasoneand Liz Ashley flew to Savannakhet on 1 June to meet up with Dr Tiengkham Pongvongsa to plan for the SEACTN and Spot Sepsis studies in the province. (Assoc Prof Yoel Lubell, Head of Economics & Implementation Research Group (EIRG), MAEMOD, is the PI for both projects.) SEACTN is a MORU Network project taking place in Laos, Bangladesh and Myanmar. In Laos most of the work will be done at health centre level. During the visit, they stopped off at Phalanxay District Hospital which was a trip down memory lane for Prof Mayfong, pictured looking at a picture of the life cycle of Plasmodium falciparum as seen by light microscopy (created by Dr Kamolrat Silamut, MORU) that was still on the lab wall, 18 years after Mayfong put it there.
