Genotyping Workshop

In November 2019, a two-day genotyping workshop co-funded by the Asia Pacific Malaria Elimination Network (APMEN) and Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade was conducted at the Eijkman Institute for Molecular Biology in Jakarta, Indonesia. The meeting was attended by 70 participants from nine countries, including 10 National Malaria Control Programs (NMCP), UNICEF and World Health Organisation representatives.

The aim of the meeting was to discuss novel molecular approaches for parasite surveillance and explore ways in which these tools can be integrated into policy and practice.
