A photo from Pearl Gan, Photographer In Residence for OUCRU, was selected for The Lancet Highlights 2018. The picture shows Senior Nurse Shikh Rema changing the dressing for Jabeda Begom, a 65-year-old woman with leprosy, at the Jalchatra Hospital in Bangladesh. Treatment of leprosy is a lengthy process, but thanks to dedicated staff, patients are given the care and attention they need.<\/p>\n

“My goal is to\u00a0help in\u00a0raising\u00a0awareness of world issues around me. This leprosy photo published in the Lancet\u00a0was taken in Jalchatra hospital in Bangladesh. I had encountered many problems in this Dhaka\u00a0trip. It was\u00a0a life-altering experience for me. I was lucky to have escaped student\u00a0riots which had\u00a0frozen\u00a0the city of Dhaka. I was caught in the unrest and encountered streets being locked down;\u00a0was holed up\u00a0for hours, waiting to be saved. Another time, I was in a trapped\u00a0in a\u00a0car while hundreds of students marched down the street with big weapons in their hands. I really had to thank my lucky star for\u00a0escaping unscathed.<\/p>\n

Political unrest was not something we encountered everyday in our life. But to have good\u00a0memories coming out from a bad\u00a0experience,\u00a0that itself\u00a0definitely deserved a toast.\u00a0I will never take life for granted after this trip. It is going to take a while to recover from this traumatic trip but the\u00a0winning photograph is definitely a recognition of my work and I sincerely thanked Professor Kevin Baird and Dr Mary Chambers for believing in me. ”<\/p>\n
