Grant Activity:
The development and potential of a malaria resistant mosquito for the Southwest Pacific
Purpose:
Malaria plagues the Southwest Pacific. With no vaccine, resistance to antimalarials growing, vector control is the mainstay in reducing malaria but mosquitoes are adapting to these tools. We are developing a malaria resistant mosquito in the lab with the capability to drive malaria resistant traits through populations. This project will permit the potential of this technology to be explored through population genomics and mathematical modelling to develop simulations of hypothetical releases.
