Dr. Pierre Marie Sovegnon is a committed medical entomologist with a Ph.D. from the University of Abomey-Calavi (UAC) in Benin. His work centers on vector behavior, insecticide resistance, and the transmission dynamics of infectious diseases, especially malaria.As an early-career researcher in medical entomology, he focuses on the behavioral ecology of malaria vectors, particularly behavioral resistance and its implications for disease control. Understanding how malaria mosquitoes respond to insecticide-based interventions is essential to improving prevention strategies. His Ph.D. research examined these behavioral dynamics in the context of next-generation insecticide-treated nets, assessing their effectiveness and anticipating potential adaptation mechanisms. With malaria vector resistance becoming an increasing challenge, his work provides critical insights into how vector behavior influences the success of control interventions. By integrating statistical modeling and biostatistics, he generates evidence-based analyses that support informed decision-making in vector control. His expertise contributes to producing robust scientific data that bridges the gap between research and practical implementation, ultimately enhancing malaria vector management.He is currently affiliated with the UEGDFU unit of the CReMIT at the University of Abomey-Calavi.

Dr. Sovegnon has authored several scientific publications, contributing significantly to the field of medical entomology. Notable works include:

• Efficacy of Interceptor G2, Royal Guard, and PermaNet 3.0 against pyrethroid-resistant Anopheles gambiae s.l. from Za-Kpota, southern Benin: an experimental hut trial (July 2024): This study evaluates the effectiveness of various insecticide-treated nets against resistant malaria vectors in Benin.
• Community evaluation of VECTRON™ T500, a broflanilide-based mosquito adulticide, for malaria vector control in Benin (2023): This research assesses the potential of a new mosquito adulticide for malaria control.
