Praise for Chris and Xand van Tulleken:

‘The van Tullekens are the pin-up doctors at the forefront of HIV research, medicine in war zones and the Ebola epidemic. They’re so warm and likeable that they’ve made roughly 20 TV shows between them in the past ten years. Proving that smart is indeed the new sexy, both van Tullekens are highly qualified doctors researching and treating infectious diseases, while their shows tend to involve hair-raising, death-defying or body-hacking challenges – all carried off with inexhaustible good humour in the name of science. Indeed, their bucket list is as short as Chris’ stubble: to date they’ve trekked to the North Pole, shoved spikes through their tongues and even won a BAFTA.’

Evening Standard

To Kit and Anthony. For both the nature and the nurture. To Dinah. For the chromosomes and the hard yards you’ve put in with me and with Lyra. To Lyra and Julian – From your Dads and your Uncle Dads. Xand and Chris van Tulleken

For my Mum and Dad, Barbara and the very much missed Geof Cohen. I couldn’t have asked for more loving parents to help me grow, learn and survive. Andrew Cohen
