the WHO recommends complementary strategies to accelerate transmission interruption, including vector control, the provision of sanitation and hygiene, health awareness and capacity building.
In response, LSTM has reorganised itself by focussing on a multidisciplinary approach and establishing a cross cutting theme in NTDs, building on the particular strengths of its research departments. This draws together a broad range of existing projects but will also encompass a raft of new programmes.
Overseeing and leading this is LSTM’s Emeritus Professor David Molyneux. He will advocate for a better understanding of what he has termed the ‘chronic pandemic of NTDs and their debilitating impact and for effective sustainable elimination and control programmes’.
