Mosquito-borne diseases, in particular malaria, have a significant burden worldwide leading to nearly half a million deaths each year.The malaria parasite requires a vertebrate host, such as a human, and a vector host, the Anopheles mosquito, to complete Cropped its full life cycle.Here, we focus on the parasite dynamics within the vector to examin
