Mosquito Research Laboratory

Описание: The Philippines is one of the top countries with the highest dengue cases and deaths. Thousands of children and even adults get infected every rainy season. This is even more alarming especially in poor rural areas with limited medical facilities.

As a response to this malady, the Mosquito Research Laboratory (MRL) of the University of San Carlos has been established by Prof. Frances E. Edillo, Ph.D. This measure provides timely and relevant information on mosquito research in the Philippines and, at the same time, contributes to the global efforts in fighting the health and economic burdens imposed by dengue and other mosquito-borne diseases.
