About

What they do

The CDC Malaria and Entomology Branches develop laboratory and surveillance tools that help detect malaria, track drug-resistant parasites, and investigate transmission, and support country malaria programs with data and technical guidance.1 Their work includes diagnostic and molecular resistance-testing methods, vector-control, malaria prevention and treatment research, implementation science, and surveillance and testing used by the U.S. malaria program.1 Their U.S. work is based in Atlanta, Georgia, and their malaria work spans the Develop and Deliver stages.1
