Associate Professor of Africana Studies/History Kalala Ngalamulume has been invited to give a keynote speech at a conference on Anxiety in and About Africa that takes place June 15-16 at the University of Cambridge (U.K.)
Ngalamulume specializes in the history of health and disease in West Africa. His most recent book, entitled Colonial Pathologies, Environment, and Western Medicine in Saint-Louis-du-Senegal, 1867-1920 (Peter Lang, 2012), explores how the French colonial and medical authorities and the urban residents responded to the emergence and re-emergence of deadly epidemic diseases and environmental contamination in the capital of Senegal and French West Africa.
