Cranford Community College has
strong links with many top universities
in the UK. One of these is the world
leading University of Cambridge. On the
30th October 2019, Dr Liz Hook, Fellow and
University Lecturer in Cellular and Molecular
Pathology, delivered a highly enjoyable and
engaging interactive session to 45 enthused
year 10, 11 and 12 pupils on “Ebola –
Public Health and Tropical Medicine.”
The lecture was particularly interesting as
students gained a greater understanding of
the challenges of working effectively in a
resource-poor setting. Dr Hook explored the
diagnosis, treatment and containment of
Ebola as well as some of the difficulties
encountered in providing medical
care in remote parts of North Africa.
Dr Hook also gave helpful and practical
advice to the pupils on applying to
Oxford and Cambridge Universities.
The students selected for this event had
demonstrated an aptitude in Science and an
interest in entering the medical profession.
The students were excellent ambassadors
for the school and were fascinated by the
content of the lecture asking many insightful
questions at the end. They enjoyed the event
tremendously and represented Cranford
Community College at its best. Dr Hook
commented on how impressed she was with
the enthusiasm and contributions of our
students, who have benefited hugely from
this memorable lecture, with a renewed
passion for medicine.
This lecture had excellent curriculum links
to infection, response and immunity topics
in GCSE Science and A Level Biology and
students also benefited from an enhanced
knowledge and understanding of these topics.
