inform everybody that last night (22/10/2011) Bob Killick-Kendrick died.
Leishmaniasis has lost one of its icons and the breadth and depth of Bob&acute;s
comments on-line and at meetings based on years of experience is a terrible loss to
us all. Bob&acute;s career spanned many areas of parasitology. He worked on
trypanosomiasis in Nigeria with David Godfrey and on returning to England dedicated
many years to malaria, in particular rodent malaria. He travelled extensively on
field projects all over the world and together with Prof Rioux was seminal in
understanding the ecology of leishmaniasis in the Southern France where
lived.</span></span></p>
