A snapshot of the many projects at the Centre which focus on the deadly parasites that spread malaria around the bodies of human, mosquito and animal populations.
Our research into the mosquito ranges from vector control interventions such as indoor residual spraying (IRS) and bed net trials, to monitoring for invasive species and investigating the skin microbiome.
Recent advancements in vaccination and drug trials have contributed to marked achievements in Africa, alongside improving diagnostics across South-East Asia, and using cost-effective vector control interventions in low transmission settings.
Malaria and the environment are inextricably linked, with research into this relationship revealing the role of land-use and environmental change in the spread of disease.
