Impressions of AFRIMS

A Seventh Grade Field Trip

The AFRIMS staff are part of a larger Thai and American expatriate (U.S. Embassy) Community. A memorable morning was spent hosting a group of students from the International School. Their postcards and comments show that the students learned their lessons well!

I thought that the monkey x-rays were spectacular, especially what the person taking the x-rays had to wear for protection. The way you can see the inside of the monkey’s body is cool. Thank you for teaching me about the x-rays and everything else.

This is the life cycle of trombiculid mites. The adults produce eggs, then it changes to a larva. It has only six legs. It changes to an adult with eight legs.

Thank you for taking us on this tour. I was amazed at how to separate DNA from an organism.

 

My picture shows red blood cells infected with malaria. The diagram you showed really made me understand what happens when you get malaria. Thank you for all your kindness and I hope your work goes well.

Thank you very much for sharing your science with us. I learned a lot of things.

This is a picture of the process of operating on a monkey. I thought this was neat because it is like operating on a human.
