Podcasts about Malaria

We all know by now how much Rena Sarigianopoulos of KARE-11 hates live music, loud restaurants, or going anywhere at any time. Today's visit with Chad only served to confirm all of it.

In this newscast, I look at the recent locally acquired malaria cases reported in North Queensland, Australia.

La malaria afecta a 260 millones de personas en el mundo y causa 600.000 muertes al año. El 94 por ciento de los casos se dan en el África subsahariana. Y tres de cada cuatro fallecidos son niños menores de cinco años. Costa de Marfil, con la ayuda de GAVI (organización internacional cuyo objetivo es mejorar el acceso a las vacunas y la inmunización en los países menos desarrollados), se ha convertido en el primer país africano en incluir la vacuna contra la enfermedad en su calendario de vacunación infantil. En "Más cerca" (Radio 5) hemos hablado con la investigadora del CSIC Margarita del Val, testigo directo de las primeras vacunaciones. Escuchar audio

Send us a textCould gene drive mosquitoes be the key to ending deadly diseases like malaria and dengue or do the risks outweigh the benefits? In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks talks with Dr. Michael Santos about the controversial yet potentially groundbreaking technology known as gene drive. Unlike traditional genetically modified organisms, gene drive mosquitoes are engineered to pass on specific traits to nearly all of their offspring, drastically altering or suppressing mosquito populations that spread disease. With real-world field trials set to begin very soon, we dive into how this technology works, how it differs from standard genetic modification, what diseases it targets, and what could go wrong. We also explore how the trials will be conducted, regulated, and monitored to ensure safety and transparency. Is this the dawn of a public health breakthrough or are we opening a Pandora's box we can't close? Dr. Michael Santos is the Senior Vice President of Science Partnerships and Chief Population Health Science Officer at the Foundation for the NIH. He leads global programs focused on biomedical innovation and health equity, and directs the GeneConvene Global Collaboration, which supports informed decision-making around genetic biocontrol technologies like gene drive. Prior to this, he held leadership roles at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and was a Principal at Boston Consulting Group, working across global health strategy. Dr. Santos began his career in astronomy and holds a Ph.D. from Caltech. To learn more about GeneConvene, Gene Drive Mosquitoes (and gain access to the infographic discussed in the episode) please click here. You can contact Dr. Eeks at bloomingwellness.com.Follow Eeks on Instagram here.Or Facebook here.Or X.On Youtube.Or TikTok.SUBSCRIBE to her monthly newsletter here!

On this week's podcast episode, we unpack U.S. President Donald Trump's 2026 budget request, which proposes sweeping cuts to foreign aid and includes the elimination of funding for major global health initiatives such as Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance and The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. The administration has also submitted a $9.4 billion rescission proposal to the U.S. Congress, seeking to formally cancel previously approved funds, much of it earmarked for foreign assistance. If approved, the move would codify into law cuts already made by the Department of Government Efficiency. The upcoming congressional response will be a critical test of foreign aid advocacy. We also discuss what happened at last week's African Development Bank meetings in Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire, where delegates discussed the need to diversify funding sources in the wake of U.S. aid cuts and focus on more reliable partnerships. The meetings also marked a leadership transition, with Mauritania's Sidi Ould Tah appointed as the AfDB's new president, vowing to mobilize private sector investment and deepen partnerships with the Gulf states. To discuss these stories, Devex Senior Editor Rumbi Chakamba is joined by reporters Michael Igoe and Ayenat Mersie for this episode of This Week in Global Development.

In this opening episode of the mini-series, we explore how moments of crisis—from economic collapse to political instability—create fertile ground for anti-feminist backlash. We hear how patriarchal power is mobilised across contexts and how resisting it requires collective action that cuts across sectors, including health.

00:45 Treating mosquitoes for malariaResearchers have developed two compounds that can kill malaria-causing parasites within mosquitoes, an approach they hope could help reduce transmission of the disease. The team showed that these compounds can be embedded into the plastics used to make bed nets, providing an alternative to insecticide-based malaria-control measures, which are losing efficacy in the face of increased resistance.Research article: Probst et al.10:42 Research HighlightsThe sunlight-powered device that can harvest drinkable water from desert air, and evidence that the world's richest people are disproportionately responsible for climate impacts.Research Highlight: Atacama sunshine helps to pull water from thin airResearch Highlight: The world's richest people have an outsized role in climate extremes13:02 The genetics that can lead to pregnancy lossResearchers have found specific genetic mutations that can lead to pregnancy loss. It's known that errors, such as the duplication of chromosomes, can lead to nonviable pregnancies but less has been known about non-chromosomal genetic errors.

Nyligen hoppade Alexander Hacke av Einstürzende Neubauten, gruppen där han spelat gitarr och bas i 44 år. Innan det plötsliga beslutet hälsade han och hustrun Danielle de Picciotto på hemma hos Strage för att prata om sitt projekt Hackedepicciotto som gör egensinnig avantgarderock. Danielle flyttade från New York till Berlin i slutet av åttiotalet och grundade 1989, med sin dåvarande pojkvän, den stora technofesten Love Parade. Sedan började hon skriva elektronisk musik med Gudrun Gut (medlem i Mania D, Malaria och den allra första upplagan av Einstürzende Neubauten) samtidigt som hon gjorde karriär som konstnär och filmare. Danielle lärde känna Alexander Hacke i slutet av åttiotalet men det dröjde tills 2001 innan de blev ett par. I podden pratar Alexander bland annat om att använda kassettbandspelare som primitiva samplers, om att som 15-åring bli medlem i Einstürzende Neubauten, om sin första flickvän Christiane F (känd från filmen "Vi barn från Bahnhof Zoo"), om en vodkadränkt konsert i Pilsen som slutade med att Neubauten utvisades från Tjeckoslovakien, om första turnén i Japan där de blev otippade tonårsidoler (och bombarderades med gosedjur och trosor), om att producera Miranda Sex Garden och svenska Mobile Whorehouse och om det myller av instrument som han utforskar tillsammans med Danielle.

After taking over from the French, the US oversaw the successful opening of the Panama Canal on August 15, 1914. 3 Chief Engineers - Wallace, Stevens and Goethals overcame several odds, both engineering and manpower related, during their respective tenures, to see the Canal through to completion. Equally commendable was the contribution of Chief Sanitation Officer, William Gorgas in defeating the scourge of Yellow Fever and Malaria, within the Canal Zone.

“M” is for Malaria. Malaria was arguably the most significant disease in the history of South Carolina.

Ikiwa leo ni siku ya malaria duniani mwaka huu ikibeba maudhui ““Malaria inatokomezwa na sisi: wekeza upya, fikiria upya, chochea upya” shirika la afya la Umoja wa Mataifa  Duniani WHO limetoa wito wa kuongeza juhudi mara dufu na kutumia kila mbinu kutokomeza ugonjwa huo hatari unaoathiri mamilioni ya watu kila mwaka na kusababisha maelfu kwa maefu ya vifo. Moja ya mbinu hizo ni chanjo ambayo nchini Kenya imeanza kuzaa matunda kama anavyofafanua mwandishi wetu wa Nairobi Thelma Mwadzaya katika makala hii.

Hii leo jaridani tunaangazia wakimbizi wa DRC waliokimbilia Burundi, na ujumbe wa Siku ya Kimataifa ya Hakibunifu. Makala inatupeleka nchini Kenya kuangazia ugonjwa wa malaria na mashinani tunasalia hapa makao makuu katika mkutano wa Jukwaa la watu wa asili.Mazingira ya maisha kwa wakimbizi kutoka Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Congo, DRC waliongia Burundi na kupelekwa katika kambi ya wakimbizi ya Musenyi si endelevu na yanatishia mustakabali wao. Msemaji wa shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la Kuhudumia Wakimbizi, UNHCR Ayaki Ito, amesema hayo leo huko Geneva, Uswisi wakati akizungumza na waandishi wa Habari kuhusu hali ya wakimbizi hao wanaoendelea kumiminika nchini Burundi.Kesho Aprili 26 ni Siku ya Kimataifa ya Hakibunifu - Siku ambayo ni fursa kwa ulimwengu kukumbushwa umuhimu wa haki kwa watu wanaobuni mambo mbalimbali duniani. Ili kufahamu zaidi kuhusu Hakibunifu tumezungumza na mtaalamu wa Sheria za Sanaa na Hakimiliki, Wakili Joshua Msambila wa nchini Tanzania, kwanza anaeleza kilichomsukuma yeye kujikita katika eneo hili la sheria.”Makala hii leo ikiwa ni siku ya Malaria duniani tunaelekea Kenya kwa mwandishi wetu Thelma Mwadzaya akiangazia juhudi zinazofanyika kupitia chanjo ili kupambana na malaria ugonjwa mbao Shirika la afya la Umoja wa Mataifa WHO linasema mwaka 2023 pekee ulikatili maisha ya watu 597,000 na na asilimia 95 ya vifo hivyo vilitokea barani Afrika, na sasa linataka juhudi mara dufu zifanyike ili kuutokomeza.Na katika mashinanin fursa ni yake Kulet Adam Ole Mwarabu kiongozi wa jamii ya kimaasai kutoka Tanzania anayeshiriki katika mkutano wa Jukwaa la watu wa asili kutoka hapa Makao Makuu ya Umoja wa Mataifa na anatoa wito wa maendelo, amani  na utunzaji wa ardhi na mazingira kwa jamii ya asili na dunia nzima kwa jumla.Mwenyeji wako ni Assumpta Massoi, karibu!

Dans un monde où une piqûre de moustique peut encore être mortelle, il est réconfortant de savoir que notre mentalité s'oriente désormais vers la prévention et l'élimination. Dans cet épisode, Miriam s'entretient avec le Dr Abdouramane Camara, un lauréat de la Bourse d'accélération de carrière en Afrique et pionnier en immunologie, au sujet des vaccins antipaludiques.À propos de notre invité: Le Dr Abdouramane Camara est chercheur postdoctoral au West African Centre for Cell Biology of Infectious Pathogens (WACCBIP), à l'Université du Ghana. Après plus de dix ans passés dans plusieurs institutions européennes, il a su forger une solide expertise, le Dr Camara est revenu en Afrique pour contribuer à son avancement scientifique en développant un nouveau test clinique permettant d'évaluer l'efficacité des vaccins à un stade précoce et de prédire la protection à long terme.Ses travaux de recherche visent à élucider les mécanismes impliqués dans la génération des plasmocytes à longue durée de vie et des cellules productrices d'anticorps, ainsi qu'à explorer leur capacité à prédire précocement l'efficacité d'une vaccination. Il s'intéresse particulièrement au paludisme, une maladie endémique dans de nombreux pays africains, et à l'efficacité des nouveaux vaccins antipaludiques. Au-delà du paludisme, il étudie également les vaccins procurant une immunité à long terme, voire à vie, afin de contribuer à l'amélioration de la conception et des stratégies de mise en œuvre des vaccins.Malaria life cycle: Reproduced from PATH's Malaria Vaccines website at www.malariavaccine.org, 2024Global Malaria programmeNOUS AIMERIONS VOTRE AVIS SUR CET ÉPISODE – Visit the Microbe Mail website to sign up for updates Follow on:Instagram: Microbe_MailX/Twitter: @microbemailFacebook: MicrobeMailTiktok: @microbe.mailWatch this episode on our new YouTube channel: Microbe MailE-mail us: mail.microbe@gmail.com

In a world where a mosquito bite can still be deadly, it is comforting to know that our mindset has shifted towards prevention and elimination. In this episode, Ruan speaks to a fellow recipient of the African Career Acceleration Fellowship, Dr Abdouramane Camara who is a pioneer in immunology, about malarial vaccines.About our Guest: Dr Abdouramane Camara is a postdoc research fellow at the West African Centre for Cell Biology of Infectious Pathogens (WACCBIP), University of Ghana. After spending over a decade in various institutions across Europe, gathering immense expertise, Dr Camara has returned to Africa to contribute to its scientific advancement by developing a new clinical test to evaluate the efficacy of vaccines at an early stage and predict long-term protection.His research focuses on understanding the mechanisms underlying the generation of long-lived plasma cells, antibody-secreting cells and their potential to be early predictors of vaccination success. He is particularly interested in malaria, a disease endemic to many African countries, and the efficacy of newly introduced malaria vaccines. Beyond malaria, he is also investigating vaccines that provide long-term or lifelong immunity, aiming to contribute to improved vaccine design and implementation strategies.Malaria life cycle: Reproduced from PATH's Malaria Vaccines website at www.malariavaccine.org, 2024Global Malaria programmeWE'D LOVE YOUR FEEDBACK ON THIS EPISODE – Visit the Microbe Mail website to sign up for updates Follow on:Instagram: Microbe_MailX/Twitter: @microbemailFacebook: MicrobeMailTiktok: @microbe.mailWatch this episode on our new YouTube channel: Microbe MailE-mail us: mail.microbe@gmail.com

Nik and Ruth Ripken went to Africa as missionaries. They experienced great works of God, but also great hardship and loss. Malaria almost killed them. Four Christian friends in Somalia were killed in one day. Their 16-year-old son died suddenly.  Out of their wrestling with grief and loss God gave them a new mission: meet with persecuted Christians all over the world and learn from them. For Nik, it was a very personal quest. “I don't know if Jesus is trustworthy anymore. Somali believers are dead. Our son is dead. Our dreams are dead. And we want to know, Is Jesus for the tough places?” Out of their quest Nik Ripken Ministries was born. Nik shared the lessons persecuted Christians had taught him in a book, The Insanity of God. The book eventually became a film, released shortly after this interview was recorded. Today, Nik and Ruth host their own podcast, Witness & Persecution, and have recently launched a video-based group study, Insanity Unleashed. Listen as Nik and Ruth share their stories of God calling them to missions from very different backgrounds, and the hardship and loss they experienced on the field in Africa as missionaries. The VOM App for your smartphone or tablet will help you pray daily for persecuted Christians in Syria, North Korea, Iran, China and other nations throughout the year, as well as giving free access to e-books, audio books, video content and feature films.
