Association between air pollution and rhinitis incidence in two European cohorts (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The association between air pollution and rhinitis is not well established. AIM: The aim of this longitudinal analysis was to study the association between modeled air pollution at the sub
Immunization of malaria pre-exposed volunteers with PfSPZ Vaccine elicits long-lived IgM invasion-inhibitory and complement-fixing antibodies (Publications)
The assessment of antibody responses after immunization with radiation attenuated, aseptic, purified, cryopreserved Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) sporozoites (SPZ) (Sanaria(R) PfSPZ Vaccine) has focused
Development of non-linear models predicting daily fine particle concentrations using aerosol optical depth retrievals and ground-based measurements at... (Publications)
Epidemiological studies generally use particulate matter measurements with diameter less 2.5 μm (PM2.5) from monitoring networks. Satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD) data has considerable potential
Distinct clinical characteristics and helminth co-infections in adult tuberculosis patients from urban compared to rural Tanzania (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Differences in rural and urban settings could account for distinct characteristics in the epidemiology of tuberculosis (TB). We comparatively studied epidemiological features of TB and hel
<em>Plasmodium vivax </em>molecular diagnostics in community surveys: pitfalls and solutions (Publications)
A distinctive feature of Plasmodium vivax infections is the overall low parasite density in peripheral blood. Thus, identifying asymptomatic infected individuals in endemic communities requires diagno
Converging human and malaria vector diagnostics with data management towards an integrated holistic One Health approach (Publications)
Monitoring malaria prevalence in humans, as well as vector populations, for the presence of Plasmodium, is an integral component of effective malaria control, and eventually, elimination. In the field
