The second session of the monthly MESA Webinars: Science for Malaria Impact will be held on June 10 at 2 PM CAT (8 AM EDT, 8 PM SGT). Focusing on entomology, it will feature Fredros Okumu, director of science at the Ifakara Health Institute (IHI) in Tanzania, and Mercy Opiyo, medical entomologist at the Manhiça Health Research Centre (CISM) in Mozambique and the Barcelona Institute for Global Health (ISGlobal) in Spain.

For the first time, MESA will virtually celebrate a series of monthly discussions, the MESA Webinars: Science for Malaria Impact. These webinars bring together the malaria community of innovators and showcase the work of malaria-endemic researchers. Starting in May, the virtual events will be held on the first Wednesday of each month and will feature two researchers. These one-hour sessions will cover a range of topics, from social sciences to entomology, through insecticide drug resistance, stratification and genomics.

When: First Wednesday of each month until December
