Since 2009, the independent Expert Scientific Advisory Committee (ESAC) meetings that convene to review MMV’s malaria drug projects have been held annually in partner locations across the world. At each of these locations, MMV and its partner(s) in the city have organized a Malaria Symposium to share scientific knowledge with local scientists and raise awareness about malaria and MMV.

This year’s Malaria Symposium, co-hosted by MMV, McGill University and the Structural Genomics Consortium (SGC) aims to share scientific knowledge and to strengthen collaborations between MMV and Canadian research institutions. It will be held at McGill University, after the completion of ESAC’s deliberations.
