Warsaw University of Technology (PW) has been included in the PvSTATEM international research consortium to combat one form of malaria. 

The international consortium PvSTATEM (P. vivax Serological Testing and Treatment in Ethiopia and Madagascar) has launched a project in 2022 to develop a new solution for the control and elimination of malaria caused by P. vivax.

The consortium is made up of nine partners: the Pasteur Institute in Paris, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, the Amauer Hansen Research Institute in Ethiopia, the Pasteur Institute in Madagascar, the University of Galway in Ireland, the Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics in Switzerland, the Italian association MEDEA, the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute in Australia and the Warsaw University of Technology.

In the consortium, researchers from the Warsaw University of Technology will help develop a machine learning method for population-level malaria surveillance.
