Very proud of how well this is going. I should add, most of this would not have happened without @pamcafrica 🤝
PhD students from IRSS in Burkina Faso have worked with @LSTMnews vector biologists to generate a transgenic mosquito.
The partnership, funded by the @gatesfoundation, is designed to build capacity in molecular biology and genetic control of mosquitoes in Burkina Faso.

Des moments uniques avec Prof. Diabaté qui va faire une communication attendue sur le potentiel de l'#impulsiongénétique dans la lutte contre le #paludisme à Vancouver au #TED2024. C'est une reconnaissance pour l'expertise de la recherche africaine. @TargetMalaria @IrssF
Target Malaria is at #TED2024!
We are so excited for Prof. Diabaté to talk about how to fight #Malaria with #GeneDrive mosquitoes and the work that the team is doing in Burkina Faso at @IrssDro as part of Target Malaria!

What will it take to end malaria
~
There was a time, not so long ago, when we were buoyed by the progress everywhere, and when we appeared overly optimistic about malaria eradication. It was interesting re-reading the Aspirations to Action Document , written before the post 2000 malaria trends started flattening.
~
Wondering whether some of these aspirations can be salvaged for tomorrow endmalaria2040.org/

🙏 to Dr Etienne Bilgo @bilgo02 @IrssF for a fascinating talk today at #VectorsGlasgow meeting.
Etienne's work & vision for new microbial-based tools against #malaria #mosquito is truly inspiring.
Looking forward to your visit @IBAHCM

I’m very happy to have contributed to this @sciencebreaker with @bilgo02! This article breaks down the major findings from our article in @sciencemagazine: science.sciencemag.org/conte…
To fight against #malaria, scientists have developed a #fungus that effectively kills wild-caught mosquitoes and hampers their reproduction.
@bilgo02 and @lovettbr describe here their results!
