The spread of Anopheles Stephensi🦟is threatening progress to #endmalaria in Africa. Last year, Mireia Larrosa, Alphey Lab University of York presented her research on this vector ASTMH. Learn more ➡️genedrivenetwork.org/blog/investiga…

If you ever run out of promoters to use for Anopheles stephensi transgenesis, try this out! 😀 Great work getting this out team. @ Joshua Southworth Michelle Anderson Estela González 🏳️‍🌈 Mireia Larrosa

On this #WorldMosquitoDay, we are facing the worst year on record for #dengue fever. Joshua Ang Alphey Lab Biology at York shares his thoughts about this global health threat and tells us why new tools are needed to #EndDengue ➡️ genedrivenetwork.org/blog/dengue-ne…

Aedes🦟 are a major global health concern due to their role in spreading disease. This #WorldMosquitoDay, hear from researchers sharing facts about these 🦟, the diseases they carry & novel control tools🔬🧬 ➡️ bit.ly/3WPM3XP #EndDengue Peking University

Today is #WorldMosquitoDay. The mosquito is considered the deadliest animal in the world, acting as a powerful disease vector. Thank you to Outreach Network for Gene Drive Research for the opportunity to talk about my work and see the important work of other researchers. ➡️lnkd.in/e6HxPEeQ

“With #AedesAegypti 🦟becoming more resistant to insecticides, it is critical to develop new strategies to limit the spread of the diseases they transmit.” 🔬🧬 Hear more from Eunice Oluwatobiloba Adedeji Alphey Lab Biology at York. ➡️bit.ly/3WPM3XP #WorldMosquitoDay

What is #genedrive and how could it help fight mosquito-borne diseases such as #malaria? Hear from experts from the Alphey Lab transmissionzero Imperial College London and Target Malaria in this new Guardian news piece penned by Rosie Taylor ➡️ theguardian.com/global-develop… Nikolai Windbichler

🎄 As 2024 wraps up, we’re celebrating the progress we’ve made tackling real-world challenges through biology—together. 🚀 Huge thanks to our amazing team of scientists! 🌟 Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! 🎁🎉 Here’s to solving even bigger challenges in 2025! 💪

We engineered a CRISPR/Cas9 gene drive in Anopheles stephensi targeting the doublesex gene — aiming to disrupt malaria transmission at its source 🦟🧬 Promising inheritance, some fertility hurdles — but a big step forward! 📖 Read it here: parasitesandvectors.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11…

Had a fantastic time hosting Jackson Champer at our lab for a seminar on gene drive! 🎉🧬 Great discussions and loads of inspiration. Thanks for visiting us, and all the best with your future work! 🌟🦟✨ Michelle Anderson Joshua Ang

🚀 New paper out in Scientific Reports! We showed that not all RNA Pol III promoters are created equal—different promoters drive varying homing efficiencies in An. stephensi! 🧬✨ Congrats to the team! 👏 Estela González 🏳️‍🌈 Michelle Anderson Joshua Ang Philip Leftwich nature.com/articles/s4159…

🧬 Delighted to share our new review on synthetic HEG drives in Ae. aegypti. We examine challenges, propose the CHIROS framework to guide future dev, and discuss paths forward for this vector control strategy.
