Completed launch meeting of West African Network for Surveillance and mitigation of Antimalarial drug Resistance (WANSAR) in Bamako. Adopted the Constitution, ToR and a Roadmap for WANSAR. Looking forward to working together as a Region @endmalaria @MrtcParasito @gatesfoundation
I was delighted to meet with his Excellency @AngusMckeeUK Ambassador of UK in Mali. Warm discussions on science translation and beyond. This was a follow up of a day-long visit by DELTAS Africa Directors at @FCDOGovUK in London. Many thanks @wellcometrust @SciforAfrica

Fantastic panel discussion to finish the scientific programme on Day 3 at #GEM24
Great discussion on dreams for the future, including decentralisation, data standards, communication with policymakers, whole genome sequencing, and funding sustainability.

Happy to attend #GEM24 where two former @DELGEME1 MSc students, now PhD students presented impressive data. Fantastic to be updated on the latest on malaria genomics, see old friends and meet new ones @SciforAfrica @deusishe @PDNA11 @MrtcParasito
I was thrilled to visit the @wanecam_2 site of Sabou @GrasBurkina a few days before KALUMA SIV. I saw a team ready for the upcoming Phase III trials of KAF156/LUMsdf @EDCTP @Novartis @MedsforMalaria @MrtcParasito
Refreshing to visit field sites, meet with communities and our @wanecam_2 frontline staff in preparation for Phase 3 KALUMA trials. Thanks to all for your tireless work @EDCTP @SciforAfrica @MrtcParasito @gatesfoundation
