This is a Project funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to the Centre for Research in Infectious Diseases (CRID) with aims at supporting capacity-building efforts in malaria mathematical modeling across sub-Saharan Africa with a specific focus on vector control, to help maximize its impact and reduce malaria burden.

As mosquitos have become resistant to chemicals used in sprays and bed nets, these methods are not as effective at killing mosquitoes as they once were. In order to identify the best new methods and chemicals, there is a need for a tool that can detect mosquitoes that do not die when exposed to chemicals.…
Unless insecticide resistance is properly managed, the recent gains in reducing malaria transmission could be lost. Worrying cases of high resistance levels to insecticides are emerging in major malaria vectors leading to extensive loss of efficacy of Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLINs) including PBO-pyrethroid nets. Such rise of insecticide resistance is now a major concern…
