IVCC is hiring two Technical Officers in Liverpool to support the development of new tools against malaria and other vector-borne diseases.
Focus areas: insecticide-treated nets and spatial emanators.
Closes: 5 November 2026

Investment and partnerships are central to malaria innovation.
Of 35 scientists surveyed for @MalariaNoMoreUK's Malaria Science Index:
94% rated limited R&D funding a high or medium risk.

Updated @WHO guidance reinforces the value of effective vector control when resources are constrained. Modelling suggests removing ITNs in moderate to high transmission areas can worsen health outcomes and may increase overall costs.

We recently welcomed @AgainstMalaria to IVCC.
The visit included lab tours and talks on IVCC's product pipeline and our work to improve the chemical and physical durability of ITNs.
We also explored opportunities to monitor net durability through AMF-supported campaigns.
Growing insecticide resistance is challenging malaria vector control tools, both now and for the future.
For #WorldMosquitoDay, we explore why the right products, a diverse pipeline and strong partnerships are needed to protect progress.

#VectorControl
During this year’s World Cup, #ZeroMalariaFC led by @ZeroMalaria celebrated the scientists, innovators and partners advancing new tools to tackle malaria.
The deployment of 56 million next-generation mosquito nets across Africa shows what collaboration can achieve.

We were pleased to welcome colleagues from @dfat to IVCC's office to discuss progress across our Indo-Pacific programmes and priorities for vector control.

Great minds from the UK and across Africa are battling to end malaria. New vaccines, treatments and better bed nets already save lives. They are looking for the next breakthroughs.
The UK backs partners like @MedsforMalaria and @invectorcontrol to make ending malaria possible.
A recent @devex article explores why outdoor mosquito control must be part of integrated mosquito management, particularly as malaria vectors adapt and people remain at risk outside the reach of existing interventions.

Mosquitoes don't only bite indoors. Our response to malaria can't stay indoors either.
IVCC is working with partners to develop outdoor mosquito control tools to protect people that existing interventions can't reach.
