Our Mission
At Crisanti Lab, we investigate biological mechanisms such as gametogenesis and sex determination in mosquitoes, focusing on gene interactions, DNA recombination and repair mechanisms. Using molecular and bioinformatic tools, we are applying this knowledge to develop genetic strategies to help reduce the world’s disease burden.
