Entomological studies: How to guarantee useful and valid data in the case of genetically-modified mosquitoes?

A recent report analyses the application of standard operating procedures (SOPs) and operational plans, used in traditional entomological studies, to the case of genetically-modified mosquitoes for vector control. The authors explain the importance of developing an audit approach to verify the correct use of SOPs and the performance of tasks during mosquito field studies. They also recognise the benefits of having an external team of auditors to support the process.
