Automated diagnostic platform, data management system and innovative communication tool, for improving the impact of malaria vector control interventions (DMC-MALVEC)
Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Jan 31, 2020,
Malaria is a life-threatening disease causing more than 500,000 deaths every year in sub-Saharan Africa. Prevention of the disease is best achieved by vector control which relies on the use of insecticides. Monitoring mosquito vector populations is an integral component of control programmes and a prerequisite for effective interventions. Several individual methods are used for this task, However, ...

Fast, cost-effective, user-friendly point of care (POC) instrument for detection of respiratory pathogens, including Streptococcus pneumoniae (RESPOC)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
Molecular techniques such as PCR (polymerase chain reaction) are becoming increasingly used for the detection of respiratory pathogens, due to their high accuracy and relatively fast turnaround time (hours). Their utilization can result in early and specific treatment, contribute to better patient outcomes and reduce length of hospital stay. However, implementation of rapid molecular diagnostics r ...
