History in the Making: Ross's slides under the microscope
History in the Making: Ross's slides under the microscope
As part of Explore your Archives week, LSHTM Archives have joined scientists at the School to discover more about our extraordinary collection of Sir Ronald Ross's malarial slides that he created in India whilst working towards his momentous discovery in 1897 of the link between mosquitoes and malaria, for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1902.
For the first time, Ross's original slides have been put under the microscope, with extraordinary results.
Drop by and see images of our unique investigations, along with other gems from the Ross Archive collection between 12-2pm on Wednesday 23rd November.
