Loving Maggots - The science behind these medical marvels!

Maggots are a wonderful and effective way to treat chronic or hard to heal wounds!
Our research group at Swansea University has made scientific discoveries that explain how maggots act to help wounds heal.
However, public awareness and perception of maggot therapy is often very poor and generally very negative.
By sharing and highlighting our work we aim to change the “yucky” perception of these wonderful creatures!
