lepramuseet


You know how the proper name for leprosy is Hansen's disease? Well, Dr. Hansen was from Bergen. Apparently Norwegians did a lot of leprosy research. So I was mighty disappointed that the leprosy museum is only open in summer.

There are a bunch of yeasts with the name Hansenula as their genus. I bet it's the very same Dr. Hansen.
