Predictors of residual antimalarial drugs in the blood in community surveys in Tanzania (Publications)
cross-sectional survey was conducted in 2015 in three regions of Tanzania with different levels of malaria endemicity. Interviews were conducted and blood samples collected through household surveys for further

Palladium-catalysed synthesis of arylnaphthoquinones as antiprotozoal and antimycobacterial agents (Publications)
Malaria and tuberculosis are still among the leading causes of death in low-income countries. The 1,4-naphthoquinone (NQ) scaffold can be found in a variety of anti-infective agents. Herein, we report

Insecticide susceptibility of <em>Anopheles </em>mosquitoes changes in response to variations in the larval environment (Publications)
Insecticide resistance threatens the success achieved through vector control in reducing the burden of malaria. An understanding of insecticide resistance mechanisms would help to develop novel tools and strategies
