Very sad i could not join you yesterday! Great session!

ACoMVec CRID-Cam delegates taking a group photo at the end of their Symposium session on the theme ' Why data-based mathematical models matter, & can they be used to influence policies, save lives, & ensure a long-lasting optimal control of VBD' at #PAMCA2023 #Addis CRID-Cam

NEW EPISODE #ScienceInContext ! This week

Pleased to announce that 12 countries in Africa will be allocated a total of 18M doses of the world’s first #malaria vaccine over the next 2 years with @Gavi support: bit.ly/44bLvOA World Health Organization (WHO) UNICEF GSK Unitaid The Global Fund MedAccess @PATHTweets USAID Global Health CDC Global Health

Insecticide treated nets remain the mainstay of malaria control in Africa and >200 million distributed each year. Really interesting paper by Hannah Koenker and colleages showing how best to maintain - the all important - high net usage. Let's hope they remain effective........

Thank you MalariaGEN for this brilliant thread on how to spot an Anopheles mosquito 🦟

Great news today: I Welcome World Health Organization (WHO) recommendations on 2 new types of insecticide-treated nets, transformative tools that will have significant impact in #malaria & contribute to #endmalaria if tailored & targeted to those that need them ⁦RBM Partnership⁩ who.int/news/item/14-0…

Experimental hut trials are good indicators of whether indoor interventions can prevent malaria. To do this, we need to understand their measurement error, as mosquitoes are tricksy.

Talking about #InsecticideResistance & some of my work with World Health Organization (WHO) in MRC Centre for Global Infectious Disease Analysis's latest #ScienceInContext

Thanks for making science more accessible Ryan O'Hare & Sabine L.van Elsland!

Super excited by this Wellcome grant. Discussing with Charles Wondji today at CRID-Cam how complex the climate-mosquito-disease interactions are. Blows my mind. So so important, but so so hard. Hopefully this tool can help build the evidence-base!

In Africa most mosquitoes normally follow the rains. Not rapidly invading An. stephensi.

The African Consortium in Modelling for Effective Vector Control ( #ACoMVeC ) workshop is now launched. It will go on from 13 to 21 february 2023 at CRID-Cam. The participants include the 16 ACoMVeC PhD students representing 8 sub-Saharan African partner organizations.

Big moment for malaria control, nicely summarised by Heather!

Great opportunity for a researcher on malaria modelling & epidemiology to join our Consortium! Closing date: 15 Feb. (This is one of two postdoc roles we're advertising.)

This is very worrying. Good work Eric twitter.com/eochomo/status…

#Malaria cases continued to rise between 2020 and 2021, but at a slower rate than in the period 2019 to 2020 bit.ly/3P7NDjG
