The lab receives a RIVOC grant to establish a new collaboration with french institutions.

The lab was awarded a RIVOC “Projets Innovants 2026” grant to establish a new collaboration with researchers from french institutions. Our project "VECTGECO" entitled "Revégétalisation, interactions trophiques du moustique tigre et risque vectoriel : une approche innovante de xenomonitoring moléculaire" will assess the effects of vegetation surrounding schools on mosquito population and vectorial risk. Led by Thierry Lefèvre (MIVEGEC, IRD, Montpellier), this work will be done in collaboration with Antoine Mignotte and the ALTOPICTUS team as well as with Rémy Beugnon (CEFE, Montpellier) and Albin Fontaine (IRBA).
