Gene drive video series
This video series, explains how Target Malaria is developing gene drive mosquitoes in its labs. Through animations and interviews with researchers from Target Malaria at Polo GGB and Imperial College London, these videos answer the most frequently asked questions about the development of gene drive genetically modified mosquitoes.
- Part 1: Why are we developing gene drive mosquitoes to control malaria in Africa?
- Part 2: How do we create a gene drive mosquito in the lab?
- With Louise Marston of Imperial College London
- Part 3: What safety tests and efficacy studies do we perform in our labs?
- With Dr Jarek Kryzwinski and Dr Roxana Minuz of Polo GGB
- Part 4: What gene drive approach are we currently exploring to reduce the number of malaria mosquitoes in Africa?
- With Dr Alekos Simoni and Dr Federica Bernardini of Imperial College London
