Compared to a shark bite, a mosquito bite seems pretty mild. But the reality is, I'm a lot more afraid of a tiny mosquito than a great white. And my fear is backed up by data. Mosquitoes and the diseases they carry kill more people in a single day than sharks kill in 100 years. So each year, I like to call attention to the world’s deadliest animal—along with the incredible science and innovation mobilizing to defeat the diseases it spreads. I'm sharing stories on my blog about the people leading this fight, the places they’re focusing their efforts, the technology they’re using (and creating from the ground up) to make an impact, and the obstacles that are still in the way.
[size] A biotech company is developing genetically-modified mosquitoes to combat an urban mosquito strain that migrated from South Asia and the Arabian Peninsula—which, if left unchecked, threatens to put another 126 million people in Africa at risk of malaria. [/size]
[size] A storied fragrance company in Switzerland is tapping into its massive scent library to figure out whether some fragrances that smell nice to humans can repel malaria-carrying mosquitoes. [/size]
[size] A British geneticist is studying the mosquito collection at London’s Natural History Museum to better understand how the insect evolves and mutates over time, which could inform the efforts to make better insecticides and next-generation malaria vaccines. [/size]
[size] Climate change is introducing new obstacles to malaria eradication efforts. But new tools adapted to these challenges will continue the progress to wiping out malaria for good—even as mosquitos try and survive in new places. [/size]
[size] A Cameroonian scientist left his university in the United Kingdom to study insecticide resistance in mosquitoes in the field—while cultivating the next generation of African malaria researchers in his home country. [/size]
