The influence of physiological status on age prediction of <em>Anopheles arabiensis</em> using near infra-red spectroscopy (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Determining the age of malaria vectors is essential for evaluating the impact of interventions that reduce the survival of wild mosquito populations and for estimating changes in vectorial
Blood-stage parasitaemia and age determine <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> and <em>P. vivax</em> gametocytaemia in Papua New Guinea (Publications)
A better understanding of human-to-mosquito transmission is crucial to control malaria. In order to assess factors associated with gametocyte carriage, 2083 samples were collected in a cross-sectional
Asymptomatic <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> infections may not be shortened by acquired immunity (Publications)
naturally acquired immunity (NAI) can shorten infections, despite the potential implications for malaria control and elimination as well as for basic research. METHODS: Data on the presence of P. falciparum
