Spiroindolones, a potent compound class for the treatment of malaria (Publications)
etic properties compatible with once-daily oral dosing and has single-dose efficacy in a rodent malaria model
Malaria seasonality and rainfall seasonality in Sri Lanka are correlated in space (Publications)
seasonality of malaria and seasonality of rainfall was studied in Sri Lanka. A simple seasonality index was developed by making use of the bimodal seasonality of both malaria and rainfall. The malaria seasonality [...] rainfall seasonality index in explaining the malaria seasonality index was found to be significant. The results suggest that rainfall is an important driver of malaria seasonality
Mapping and predicting malaria transmission in the People's Republic of China, using integrated biology-driven and statistical models (Publications)
humidity, which thus determines the extent of malaria transmission. However, in regions with relative humidity > 60%, temperature is the major driver of malaria transmission intensity. By integrating bio [...] The purpose of this study was to deepen our understanding of Plasmodium vivax malaria transmission patterns in the People's Republic of China (P.R. China). An integrated modeling approach was employed [...] and statistical models. A Delphi approach was used to determine environmental...
Pyrethroid resistance in <em>Anopheles gambiae</em>, in Bomi County, Liberia, compromises malaria vector control (Publications)
the efficacy of malaria strategies relying on this class of insecticide. The findings highlight the urgent need to expand and sustain monitoring of insecticide resistance in Liberian malaria vectors, evaluate [...] Lasting Insecticidal Nets (LLIN) and Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS) have both proven to be effective malaria vector control strategies in Africa and the new technology of insecticide treated durable wall lining [...] is logistically challenging and, furthermore, the increase in...
