In the Catteruccia lab, we are motivated by our conviction that no one should suffer from malaria and other vector-borne diseases. We conduct rigorous science to advance this common goal, while fostering a safe and vibrant environment of intellectual curiosity, collaboration, equity, and inclusivity where any form of discrimination is wholly rejected.
Alexandra Probst, PhD ’25, has been part of a team using an innovative approach to develop compounds that can prevent malaria transmission by targeting the parasite inside the mosquitoes responsible for passing the disease to people.
A potent combination of antimalarial compounds added to bed nets blocked parasite transmission in mosquitoes while circumventing insecticide resistance, according to a new study led by Harvard Chan School.
