LISTEN OUR STORIES

I invite you to listen the stories of my colleagues and myself about how we at Institute of Tropical Medicine (ITM) contribute to tackle the global challenge of vector-borne diseases.

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US!

The XII International EMCA Conference took place from 25 to 28 March 2025 in Antwerp, Belgium, organised by the European Mosquito Control Association (EMCA) in collaboration with the Institute of Tropical Medicine (ITM), gathered vector control operators, researchers, and experts from the public health sector under the theme “Ready for Action: Advances in Mosquito Control.” We shared and exchanged experiences in science, technology, and practices essential for effective management of mosquitoes and other vectors. Here you can read my farewell.
