Our @TorrSteve out trapping #tsetse in #Malawi this week. 🇲🇼 LSTM Vector Biology

It was my great pressure deploying tsetse traps with Professor Steve Torr in Nkhotakota wildlife reserve. # Strengthening resilience against sleeping sickness # Vector biology in action.

🌟 Exciting first week for Chancy Msowoya👩🏿‍🔬 and Chisomo Nkhoma👨🏿‍🔬 at LSTM, working with their tsetse colony🪰 They’ve developed skills in fly tissue extraction, ovarian age grading🪰🔬, and tsetse husbandry. Next week: lab experiments! 🧪🥼 #SleepingSickness #Entomology
