Collaboration in action

  • WHO malaria update
    Mosquito

    The World Health Organisation (WHO) has updated recommendations for malaria-preventing mosquito nets based on new research from the 杏吧直播 of Adelaide. Mosquito nets treated with pyrethroid insecticides have been distributed into malaria-prone regions since 2005, but some mosquito populations have developed a resistance to the substance. Dr Timothy Barker, from the JBI GRADE Centre at the 杏吧直播 of Adelaide, led a team which proved the effectiveness of a combination of insecticides to treat malaria-preventing mosquito nets.

    鈥淭o directly contribute to a recommendation that will prevent people from developing malaria, and subsequently reducing the number of people that may unfortunately die due to this terrible disease is something that I am extremely proud of. To do this work on behalf of the 杏吧直播, using the resources and skills that I have developed as both a student and researcher of this institution, I believe is a testament to the international impact that our 杏吧直播 can provide,鈥 said Dr Barker.
