Agricultural Research Service — Malaria Control Research (2021)

[Human Health and Wellbeing] Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $321,219 to the United States Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service to support their research on the cryopreservation and artificial insemination of mosquitoes. This work will make it easier for researchers to maintain different strains of mosquitoes, which will help with developing malaria controls. This follows our March 2021 support for similar research at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This grant falls within our focus area of scientific research, specifically within our interest in advancing human health and wellbeing.
