Genetic validation of <em>Pf</em>FKBP35 as an antimalarial drug target (Publications)
Plasmodium falciparum accounts for the majority of over 600,000 malaria-associated deaths annually. Parasites resistant to nearly all antimalarials have emerged and the need for drugs with alternative

activity against the chloroquine-sensitive NF54 and multi-drug resistant K1 strains of the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum. All compounds were active against the two strains, generally showing
Host cytoskeleton remodeling throughout the blood stages of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> (Publications)
asexual intraerythrocytic development of Plasmodium falciparum, causing the most severe form of human malaria, is marked by extensive host cell remodeling. Throughout the processes of invasion, intracellular
Candidate-gene based GWAS identifies reproducible DNA markers for metabolic pyrethroid resistance from standing genetic variation in East African... (Publications)
resistance to pyrethroid insecticides is widespread in Anopheles mosquitoes and is a major threat to malaria control. DNA markers would aid predictive monitoring of resistance, but few mutations have been

Sustaining LLIN coverage with continuous distribution: the school net programme in Tanzania (Publications)
Most malaria-endemic countries have struggled in the past decade to establish effective national-scale continuous distribution mechanisms for long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs). Since the implementation
Molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity of disappearing <em>Plasmodium vivax</em> in southern Thailand (Publications)
The evolution of genetic diversity and population structure of Plasmodium vivax as malaria elimination approaches remains unclear. This study analyzed the genetic variation and molecular epidemiology of
