Harvard University — Antimalarial Bednet Development and Evaluation
Verified[Global Health R&D] Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $2,880,750 over three years to Harvard University to support Dr. Flaminia Catteruccia’s research on a novel method of malaria prevention. The project will develop bednets and sprays that target the malaria parasites within mosquitoes to prevent malaria transmission, and establish improved screening methods for more potent transmission-blocking compounds. The activity of these nets will be evaluated in proof-of-concept hut trials, and their potential impact and cost-effectiveness will be modeled, with the ultimate goal of advancing promising interventions to larger field trials. This is one of two grants we've made to support this work. This falls within our focus area of global health R&D.
