Science as You know it, at a Meeting with a Difference

"The most unusual and fascinating meeting I ever attended"
-- the words of Yossef Av-Gay of the University of British Columbia,
Canada after his participation in Tuberculosis 2006 in April last year.

"Having spent a lifetime practising and preaching parasitology in research labs and premier hotel venues in the West, the Mangosteen experience gave me the opportunity for a much-needed reality check on world helminthology as it is, and brought into focus the enormous educational and social challenges we still face in controlling parasitic disease today. Logistics apart, Tendaba [the remote venue for Part 2 of the Meeting] in the rural heart of The Gambia proved a perfect venue for small group interaction and I would recommend the experience without equivocation. Your vision of a
'meeting with a difference' and your drive and meticulous organisation ensured undoubted success and for me a truly unforgettable adventure. Thank you." -- David Halton, Professor
Emeritus of the School of Biological Sciences, Queen's University
Belfast, UK on Pathogenic Helminths 2007

"I think the format of the Mangosteen Malaria meeting held in Senegal and The Gambia in April 2007 is one of the most interesting international congresses I have ever experienced. Firstly, the idea of bringing knowledge to developing countries is a concept that should be supported by any scientist interested in topics that matter in such parts of the world (obviously malaria matters in West Africa). The accommodation, travel and venues are organized with inexpensive but comfortable means, allowing a
discovery of the local reality. Secondly, the meeting was transversal, with academic scientists from different disciplines -- biologists such as myself and chemists -- but also with scientists from the pharmaceutical industry and medical doctors from western countries concerned with the health of western travellers. Also medical doctors from tropical countries concerned by the severity of the endemic disease and managers in charge of running malaria programmes designed globally (prophylaxis, therapies, diagnosis) at the community level. This meeting was therefore the perfect place to meet with colleagues working on complementary fields, with whom it is possible to build research and expertise networks, as well as to
involve partners from both developed and developing countries. Thirdly, the meeting was a unique opportunity to visit research facilities, hospitals and field stations devoted to the fight against malaria in Africa. It is therefore a rich scientific and human experience. I encourage all of my colleagues to come to the next meeting in 2009" -- Eric Mar?hal, D?artement R?onse et Dynamique Cellulaire, CEA-Grenoble, France speaking about Malaria 2007
