Abstract

The article presents information on social motility in Trypanosoma brucei. It says that African trypanosomes cause sleeping sickness in humans and nagana in livestock. It adds that they impose an important medical and economic load across nearly 30 countries of sub-Saharan Africa, where roughly 70 million people live at risk of infection.
