Excited to share the latest preprint from the lab in which we made trangenic mosquitoes that express various immune cell markers and use cutting-edge flow cytometry techniques to examine mosquito immune cell populations! Awesome work from @samantsidis! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

@AfricaCDC congratulates #Egypt for achieving official malaria-free certification from the World Health Organization. This remarakable achievement inspires hope for other @_AfricanUnion member states still fighting malaria, emphasizing the crucial role of effective vector control, strong healthcare systems, and cross border collaboration. Egypt stands as a powerful reminder that, through unified efforts, a malaria-free Africa is possible! #MalariaElimination #PublicHealth #AfricaHealth #ZeroMalaria #MalariaFree #EgyptHealthAchievement #HealthForAll #AfricanHealthLeadership #MalariaElimination #UniversalHealthCoverage #HealthSystems #CrossBorderCollaboration
