Report on the Third Meeting of the WHO Vector Control Advisory Group, November 2014

The objective of the meeting was to review the dossiers and target product profiles (TPPs) of nine potentially novel public health vector control paradigms. The meeting was divided into open and closed sessions (see Annex I: Agendas). On the first day an open session was held at the Hotel Manotel in Geneva, Switzerland, where innovators presented prototype products that they believed represented novel paradigms for broad discussion.
