Madhushi Sandamini from the @RemediumOne team presented a poster titled, "Changes in Domestic Mosquito Control after installing a spatial repellent in Gampaha District" at the 138th Anniversary International Medical Congress of the Sri Lanka Medical Association in July.
“Capturing such early perceptions can enhance both the design and messaging of future interventions to better align with community needs” New paper from @KEMRI_Kenya @JohnsHopkinsIH @JohnsHopkinsCCP details results from initial TIPs analysis in Kenya RCT pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12…
On #WMD2025, we're reminded ending malaria is not just a health imperative – it’s an investment in a healthier, more equitable, & safer future. Part of this investment, is data generation for new vector control tools, like spatial repellents, to complement existing tools
JHU partners, Dr. Steve Harvey & Lucy Baker, visited Sri Lanka study site & the @RemediumOne social science team. With a flurry of social science activities ongoing, this served as a prime opportunity for collaboration, brainstorming, & discussions of lessons learned thus far.
Wrapped up a terrific Vector Control Working Group meeting last week. In addition to the engaging presentations, conferences like these give @AEGISProgram team members an opportunity to meet in person and foster an outstanding partnership.
Ahead of #IWD2025, we celebrate the outstanding contributions of women in #malaria and #dengue research from the @AEGISProgram and globally.
AEGIS members are looking forward presentations and collaboration at the 20th Annual RBM VCWG Meeting in a few weeks!

Could a simple, low-cost device that hangs on a wall lead to reduced malaria transmission? A @NotreDame study showed that a spatial repellent can have transformational outcomes on malaria infections. A new video spotlights the paths that can follow. youtube.com/watch?v=--DzhQ…
#ICYMI Kenya #malaria RCT results were published last month in The Lancet! Exciting milestone for AEGIS partners @KEMRI_Kenya @CDCgov @UNITAID @SCJohnson @JohnsHopkinsCCP Learn more here: aegis.nd.edu/news-events/ne…
"..this is the first trial to show the significant impact that spatial repellents can have when deployed in the fight against malaria and is a major step towards a WHO recommendation for a completely new class of vector control tools" aegis.nd.edu/news-events/ne…
Last week, the entire Sri Lanka cRCT study team gathered to celebrate the progress and discuss the future for the trial. We are fortunate to have such a strong team implementing study activities. @RemediumOne @DengueUnit
Insightful #TropMed24 poster from our @KEMRI_Kenya and @JohnsHopkinsSPH research team on parallel social science study to the #malaria cRCT in Kenya.

If you are in attending the @ASTMH conference, don't forget to stop by Symposium 148: Spatial Repellents to Prevent #Dengue and #Malaria: Evidence and Policy Updates tomorrow at 3PM - will include presentations from @eochomo and Dr. Sagara, our Kenya and Mali cRCT PIs #TropMed24
Looking forward to @ASTMH #TropMed24 this week! Don't miss presentation of #malaria RCT results in the spatial repellent symposium and social science results during poster sessions!
In Kenya, the Unitaid-funded AEGIS project is rolling out spatial repellents where malaria rates are high. Early signs point to a breakthrough. Breakthroughs like these are critical in the fight against malaria. unitaid.org/news-blog/keny…
Our Sri Lanka #dengue cRCT study team is wrapping up the T1 blood draw sessions - another significant trial milestone! Thanks to all community member who continuously engage and play such a vital role in the trial. @RemediumOne @DengueUnit
#ICYMI The AEGIS malaria cRCT in Kenya may have ended last October, but the Kenyan government is moving ahead with early implementation of spatial repellents into communities with high rates of malaria. unitaid.exposure.co/kenya-pioneers…
Dr. Amy Morrison, a member of the AEGIS team, will be presenting on “Efficacy of a spatial repellent for control of Aedes-borne virus transmission: a cluster randomized trial in Iquitos, Peru” this week at the first #INOVEC Conference in Tanzania!
