The WHO Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR)
Dr. Ary Faraji
Executive Director and Entomologist at the Salt Lake City Mosquito Abatement District, USA

Topics Highlighted

Title Description
1. Advancing Insecticide Resistance Detection and Control Efficacy in the Field

Explore cutting-edge tools, protocols, and collaborative frameworks designed to monitor and manage insecticide resistance across diverse ecological settings.

2. Simian Malaria: Crossing Species, Crossing Borders

Zoonotic malaria is challenging national elimination goals. This symposium brings together leading scientists to address the transmission dynamics, diagnostics, and cross-border risks of simian malaria across Southeast Asia

3. AI Models in Vector Surveillance: From Prediction to Precision

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how we detect, map, and respond to vector populations. This session showcases AI applications in mosquito species identification, age grading, infection status prediction, and resistance detection.

4. Spatial Emanators for Aedes Control in Asia-Pacific

Innovative spatial repellent technologies are being trialed to protect communities from Aedes-borne diseases. Discover the latest evidence and operational experiences in deploying spatial emanators across the region.

5. One Health Approach: Roles and Actions in Vector Control

Integrating human, animal, and environmental health is key to tackling vector-borne threats. This theme focuses on multi-sectoral coordination and surveillance through a One Health lens.

6. Success Stories in Community Mobilization

What happens when communities take ownership of vector control? This session features real-world examples of participatory interventions that have improved public health outcomes and sustained behavioral change.
