NIHR (west African) Malaria surveillance training on field laboratory protocols. Taking malaria surveillance to new heights in collaboration with the NMCP, Ghana. Watch us out!

New amplicon sequencing labs in West Africa (at MRC Unit The Gambia at LSHTM and WACCBIP) are set up as hubs and will soon start to sequence parasite and mosquito samples from across the region. This is big news for West African genomic surveillance. malariagen.net/news-events/re…

Genomics making headlines this morning as Svante Pääbo wins #NobelPrize 🎉 Such a powerful tool for understanding both our evolutionary past and our relationships with other organisms.

Great progress. We should knock this target down before we meet in Seattle. We also need more donations.
