• In an era of widespread human chemoprophylactic antimalarial use, there is a need to understand the impact of bloodmeal drug exposure on the Anopheles mosquito vector and any malaria parasites developing within them
• In pilot studies, uninfected Anopheles mosquitoes exposed to long-acting antimalarials via drug-supplemented bloodmeal absorb drug but do not suffer fitness costs

         There are many bottlenecks regarding malaria parasite development in the mosquito               during which drug pressure could affect parasite development or selection
