Today, the @VLIRUOS international training programme took off once again 🚀 let's put those computers away, get our hands dirty & make State-of-the-Art P. falciparum DNA libraries. In this pilot study, we create baseline genomic data for csp, the target of the #malaria #vaccine.

Very proud of Yasmina presenting her work on #haemoglobin beta variants and sexual conversion in Plasmodium falciparum done in collaboration with @ISGLOBALorg and @IrssF in Burkina Faso
I am very excited about having been invited to present in my first BioMalPar Conference!💫Today was the third and last day. A conference I would recommend and would like to repeat! A broad variety of topics, lots of networking time, nice food & evening entertainment.#EMBLmalaria

🌍🦟 Today, on #WorldMalariaDay, we draw attention to the pressing issue of drug resistance in malaria treatment. Did you know that almost 1 in 8 returning travellers visiting our clinic have malaria? Mathijs Mutsaers from our Malariology Unit unveils an innovative approach to rapidly identify resistance to malaria drugs. Let's collaborate to tackle this critical challenge! 💊 #EndMalaria @ITMmalaria
