Thanks for the comments about our work! You are absolutely right. Our goal is to see if we can target these molecules in mosquitos to prevent the spread of diseases such as malaria and dengue fever, which kill millions of people each year. Most of these are children under the age of 3. That’s one child every 40 seconds.
