Based in Bloomsbury, central London, the Bloomsbury Institute for Pathogen Research is a joint initiative between the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine and University College London, and brings together cutting-edge pathogen research, experimental medicine and clinical development.
The concept references the coming together of the three areas of pathogen research by literally combining them in a flexible, ever-changing family of symbols. There are three fundamental compositions from which many symbols can be made. Each is a simplified figurative representation of scientific imagery from three areas — parasitic, bacterial and viral.
