Malaria has a devastating effect on communities across the world because it attacks the very future of those communities – through their children.

The current techniques for detecting malaria have been used for decades – we need to innovate to leap ahead of this scourge.

Global partnerships will transcend what any one country can do alone, and unite us all with a common purpose.

I applaud the Gates foundation for using the profits of tech innovation to fund public good innovation.

This is a perfect example of CSIRO’s Strategy 2020 in action leveraging excellent science to deliver profound innovation and impact through global collaboration.
