Dr. Serge Poda has been awarded several prestigious grants and scholarships throughout his career. As Principal Investigator of the Africa Talent Programme grant from Wageningen University & Research (€291k, 2022–2025), he secured funding for a postdoctoral fellowship to study in-flight mating behaviors in sympatric swarms of Anopheles mosquitoes and their hybrids. He also served as Co-Investigator for the LAMIVECT grant (€3k, 2020), a micro-project aimed at developing diets with local ingredients to optimize Aedes and Anopheles mosquito production for genetic control research. Dr. Poda’s scholarships include the UEMOA Excellence Scholarship (2019–2020), awarded for his exceptional academic achievements, the ARTS Ph.D. Scholarship from the French National Research Institute for Sustainable Development (IRD, 2017–2020), and the Burkina Faso government Ph.D. scholarship (2017–2021), both of which supported his doctoral studie
