Do you want to learn more about gene drive mosquitoes and the potential consequences to their release? You can follow the ongoing research by Target Malaria, a not-for-profit research consortium working on exactly this, and also explore factsheets and articles about these topics and beyond. If you’re curious about how scientists are using DNA to research to potential consequences to suppressing the population of mosquitoes that transmit the malaria plasmodium, check out this article and video. And to learn more about mosquitoes, malaria, and developing new tools to control them both, you can watch this TED talk and this Grand Challenges talk. 

And if you just want to have a bit of fun, read through this comic and have a go at this colouring book.
