Thank you to our friends at for highlighting yesterday’s event on Capitol Hill.

From Malaria No More via LinkedIn:

Yesterday on Capitol Hill, Malaria No More and the University of California Malaria Initiative (UCMI) co-hosted a special briefing on emerging mosquito technologies, followed by a presentation of Anopheles, a new documentary highlighting efforts to eliminate malaria in São Tomé and Príncipe and the people behind the work.

During the panel discussion, UCMI’s Ana Kormos and Dr. Gregory Lanzaro joined Malaria No More’s Dr. Bill Steiger to explore what it takes to move promising science from research to the field — including strong political will, regulatory readiness, community engagement, and environmental safety.

Thank you to our panelists and to everyone who joined us.

Scientific progress is built through collaboration.

UCMI Insectary Manager Danspaid Mabuka and UC San Diego’s Ankush Auradkar recently traveled to the Johns Hopkins Malaria Research Institute for hands-on training in embryonic microinjection, building new expertise they can bring back to UCMI’s work in California.
