The design of control strategies for vector-borne diseases should be guided by research in emergence mechanisms and in control of vectors.

This MOOC is organized in 6 weeks of 3-6 sequences. Each sequence is composed of a 10 minutes video and a multiple choice test to help students check their understanding. The videos are in English, subtitled in French and English. All the tests are in English and in French.
