Our team was well-represented at the 2023 American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene’s Annual Meeting, when 8 principal investigators, 5 research staff, and 1 trainee traveled to Chicago, Illinois in October.
Six posters were accepted for presentation at the conference, covering early findings from the TESTsmART trial, qualitative studies on bednet use in our longitudinal cohort and water gathering behavior in northwestern Kenya, and larval surveillance for the invasive Anopheles stephensi mosquito.
Christine Markwalter, PhD, was selected to give an oral presentation on “The Influence of Anopheline biting preferences on the Plasmodium falciparum human infectious reservoir in Western Kenya,” which sparked interesting conversation among the attendees.
