How I became a Biology Lecturer: Richard's Story

What if Richard could help control the spread of mosquito-borne infections? Hear from Richard Oxborough, MSc Biology and Control of Disease Vectors 2006 graduate from LSHTM, as he shares his experience studying with a global cohort and learning from leading faculty. He reflects on how his time at LSHTM shaped his research skills and led him to spend seven years in Tanzania conducting malaria research, which also contributed to his PhD. Now based in Nevada, USA, Richard teaches undergraduate biology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, and conducts research on mosquitoes in the Las Vegas area. 0:16 What did you do after you finished your master's 0:41 Can you tell us more about being a medical entomologist? 1:17 What are you doing in your career now?
