PaluSeq: Establishing malaria molecular surveillance capacity in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)

Objectives

The aim of this project is to establish malaria genomic surveillance capacity in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

This grant award will support the establishment of the DRC PaluSeq (séquençage du paludisme) Program, a state-of-the-art country-wide monitoring program for antimalarial drug-resistance mutations. It will also build capacity for ongoing research in the DRC.
