Something powerful happens when you ask a woman to tell her story. And sometimes, the most powerful statement of support we can offer to a woman is the one we make by listening. This #IWD2019, here’s what that means to me. m-gat.es/2IYxwXe

After 3,572 trap-nights, only one malaria-infected mosquito was found. A female An. funestus caught outdoors at 3am. This means residents experienced only 0.102 infectious bites per person per year, >99% less than in early 2000s

Amazing surprise to receive the Soka University Award of Highest Honor from President Baba & Daisaku Ikeda which inspires me further to continue with my humanitarian work. 🙏🏽 Soka University of America SGI-UK London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine Health in Humanitarian Crises Centre, LSHTM LSHTM Alumni The Lord-Lieutenant of Hertfordshire British Red Cross 🧡 #Japan #peace

Our 4th plenary is by Ailie from London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine talking about her career & research on how Malaria parasites effect human odour #RESPGF19 #entomology

A fascinating final plenary of #RESPGF19 from Ailie talking about her work on the potential methods of control of Musca sorbens, the putative vector of trachoma.

Very excited that our #malaria #diagnostics #RDT paper from Colin Sutherlands lab, collaboration between London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine and Wageningen U&R has just been published in Scientific Reports rdcu.be/bsMCb

The #housing improvements across Africa r hugely significant, especially as households r financing them with own incomes. Trend is a huge opportunities 4 African Govts to accelerate & secure gains against vector-borne diseases e.g #malaria, Lucy Tusting disq.us/t/3d36ox0

Stronger SAFE at #ento19: Ailie describing trachoma transmission by Musca sorbens flies in Ethiopia

A new blog post by Ailie covers a recent @nature story indicating that large-scale dispersal of malaria mosquitoes may be of greater significance than previously appreciated. Evidence of 'migration' across the Sahel comes from balloon sampling - tinyurl.com/wo36b55

This is amazing!

Some smelly socks, decapitated mosquitos and one study later… scientists may be closer to knowing why the bloodsuckers are attracted to people with malaria. n.pr/2J03Wf5

Safeguarding our remaining intact #forests is a key to turning around three stubborn global trends: #climatechange, the sixth great extinction crisis, and the loss of human cultures. nyti.ms/2qN8hvn via The New York Times #EarthDay

How can socks play a key role in uncovering why mosquitoes so successfully transmit #malaria? 🧦👃 Ailie discusses a recent LSHTM co-led study in PNASNews with the The Naked Scientists. 👂Read more & listen here: bit.ly/2I25eXO #WorldMalariaDay
