VectorBase Invertebrate Vectors of Human Pathogens
Lots of data out there… • Data on: • Distribution of vectors and their ecology • Insecticide resistance • Transmission capacity • For diseases: • Malaria, Chagas, Dengue, Lymph. filariasis, etc. • Projects funded by: • Innovative Vector Control Consortium - IVCC • The WHO/Gates Foundation Vector Biology and Control Project - VBC • African Network on Vector Research - ANVR • Marathon Oil (and other private investors) • And several more, including national programmes • Problems: • Fragmentation of data; Secrecy; Independence; “Dialects” and syntax; etc.
The answer, is... Intelligent Databases Open access Decision Support Systems Interoperability Efficient searches

PopGen in VectorBase George Christophides, with Bob MacCallum and Seth Redmont Kitsos Louis, with Emmanuel Dialynas and PantelisTopalis A new section of VB being developed that will house data on the population biology of anophelines, as well as data on malaria transmission and IR.
PATO IDOMAL GAZ UO Soon to come in VectorBase! IDOMAL IDOMAL VBCV Linking PopGen and ontologies; Phenotypes, IR, transmission and popu- lation/ecology data
TGMA – Mosquito Anatomy Ontology; CARO/BFO • TADS – Tick Anatomy Ontology; CARO/BFO • MIRO – Ontology of Insecticide Resistance; (move) to IDOMAL • IDOMAL – Malaria Ontology; IDO/BFO • VBCV – Ontology/CV for “completion” of PopGen • IDOMAL extension, “IDOChagas”, PLO (Parasite Lifecycle) with PritiParykh, Chris Stoeckertet al.
