AEGIS

Wonderful week of learning, sharing, and connecting at #TropMed25 as we discussed research findings and innovative approaches to vector control.

@JohnsHopkinsSPH and AEGIS representation at #TropMed25 sharing findings and observations from a retail audit conducted in Bidibidi refugee settlement in Uganda. Thanks Steve and Kaci for continuing to show up and share lessons learned to the scientific community!

Join the @AEGISProgram team members at #TropMed25 - Symposium 186: Spatial Repellents to Prevent #Dengue and #Malaria: From Active Ingredient Discovery to Policy and Rollout Evaluations on Thursday at 8 AM @KEMRI_Kenya @JohnsHopkinsCCP

Madhushi Sandamini from the @RemediumOne team presented a poster titled, "Changes in Domestic Mosquito Control after installing a spatial repellent in Gampaha District" at the 138th Anniversary International Medical Congress of the Sri Lanka Medical Association in July.

“Capturing such early perceptions can enhance both the design and messaging of future interventions to better align with community needs” New paper from @KEMRI_Kenya @JohnsHopkinsIH @JohnsHopkinsCCP details results from initial TIPs analysis in Kenya RCT pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/article…

On #WMD2025, we're reminded ending malaria is not just a health imperative – it’s an investment in a healthier, more equitable, & safer future. Part of this investment, is data generation for new vector control tools, like spatial repellents, to complement existing tools

JHU partners, Dr. Steve Harvey & Lucy Baker, visited Sri Lanka study site & the @RemediumOne social science team. With a flurry of social science activities ongoing, this served as a prime opportunity for collaboration, brainstorming, & discussions of lessons learned thus far.

Wrapped up a terrific Vector Control Working Group meeting last week. In addition to the engaging presentations, conferences like these give @AEGISProgram team members an opportunity to meet in person and foster an outstanding partnership.

Ahead of #IWD2025, we celebrate the outstanding contributions of women in #malaria and #dengue research from the @AEGISProgram and globally.

Last week, the entire Sri Lanka cRCT study team gathered to celebrate the progress and discuss the future for the trial. We are fortunate to have such a strong team implementing study activities. @RemediumOne @DengueUnit
