Live mosquitoes are required to comprehensively study vector-borne diseases like malaria.
Traditional mosquito-rearing protocols are laborious and time consuming.
After spending years manually rearing mosquitoes for hours every day, we set out to create an automated system for rearing and handling Anopheles stephensi mosquitoes.
This was one invention, of many, to ease the burden of mosquito rearing.
We published our findings in STAR Protocols.
