Take your parents to work day.

Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI)

Office in the CDC section of KEMRI

Jo works with two vet techs based in a rural area outside Kisumu who make field visits by motorcycle  when calves are born or livestock dies unexpectedly.

A calf had just been born in this compound, the techs are taking a sample from the placenta to be sent for testing.  They also use a cell phone based data entry system to log information about the visit

Back in the field staff office, Jo gets a list of needed supplies from one of the techs.

Jo arranged for us to tour this hospital next to the field office
