      No. Despite the media reports, Ebola is not Africa’s biggest problem. In my unit, we work on cures for malaria – which is far more widespread and kills far more people every year. Long-term, Ebola could be easily managed by wealthier nations agreeing to invest in a proper healthcare infrastructure for developing nations.

      I don’t make drugs, I make materials that can go in the body that help people recover from their injuries.
