Photographer Evgenia Arbugaeva captures the people maintaining the Amani Hill Research Station - a semi-abandoned colonial research facility in the jungle of Tanzania. Started by the Germans in the late 19th century as a botanical garden, the facility was converted by the British into a malaria research institution after World War Two.

Since Tanzanian independence, the British have moved out and experiments have stopped, but many of the facility's former staff remain around the building, maintaining it and stopping the jungle from consuming this piece of colonial history. Anu Anand asks what kind of a place the facility is today.
