Long-term trends in <em>Anopheles gambiae</em> insecticide resistance in Côte d'Ivoire (Publications)
BackgroundMalaria control is heavily dependent on the use of insecticides that target adult mosquito vectors via insecticide treated nets (ITNs) or indoor residual spraying (IRS). Four classes of inse
How effective is integrated vector management against malaria and lymphatic filariasis where the diseases are transmitted by the same vector? (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The opportunity to integrate vector management across multiple vector-borne diseases is particularly plausible for malaria and lymphatic filariasis (LF) control where both diseases are tra
Spatio-temporal distribution of soil-transmitted helminth infections in Brazil (Publications)
BACKGROUND: In Brazil, preventive chemotherapy targeting soil-transmitted helminthiasis is being scaled-up. Hence, spatially explicit estimates of infection risks providing information about the curre
Bayesian risk mapping and model-based estimation of <em>Schistosoma haematobium </em>- <em>Schistosoma mansoni</em> co-distribution in Côte... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma mansoni are blood flukes that cause urogenital and intestinal schistosomiasis, respectively. In Cote d'Ivoire, both species are endemic and control
Influences of blood digestion on the development of <em>Plasmodium gallinaceum</em> (Brumpt) in the midgut of <em>Aedes aegypti</em> (L.) (Publications)
Blood digestion of Aedes aegypti and development of Plasmodium gallinaceum were shifted against each other by giving the mosquitoes two consecutive blood meals. In this way the parasites were exposed
