This week the ECHO revisited the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine to see first hand what takes place in the almost 125 year old institution.
Based on Pembroke Place, the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM) is based in a few fairly grand though unassuming buildings nestled on the side of the Knowledge Quarter, where it has been for the 124 years of its history. Many will pass them daily, with only a glimpse of what's inside offered by the name of the institution operating out of them.
Yet, once inside, a vibrant, exotic and at times odd world opens up, with staff and students (some of the best in their specialisms) working on and researching some of the world's deadliest diseases and animals.
