Co-developing risk assessment across disciplines and borders: Gene driven mosquito field trials in Uganda
PI: Dr Sarah Hartley
Funders: British Academy (BA)
Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF)
This is an ODA relevant project funded by the British Academy through their Knowledge Frontiers programme. This project looks at gene drive mosquitoes in Uganda to eradicate malaria, a disease with significant health and economic costs. The interdisciplinary team from the UK, USA and Uganda will develop new ways of thinking about and approaching risk assessment in collaboration with Ugandan stakeholders.
