stricto mosquitoes are major East African malaria vectors. Understanding their dispersal and population structure is critical for developing effective malaria control tools. Three mark-release-recapture
Longitudinal tracking and quantification of individual <em>Plasmodium falciparum </em>clones in complex infections (Publications)
falciparum strains in multi-clonal infections is essential for investigating infection dynamics of malaria. The traditional genotyping techniques did not permit tracking changes in individual clone density [...] longitudinally by Amp-Seq despite MOI > 1, thus providing an additional parameter for investigating malaria infection dynamics. Amp-Seq based genotyping of longitudinal samples improves detection of minority
New <em>in vitro</em> interaction-parasite reduction ratio assay for early derisk in clinical development of antimalarial combinations (Publications)
The development and spread of drug-resistant phenotypes substantially threaten malaria control efforts. Combination therapies have the potential to minimize the risk of resistance development but require [...] will significantly improve and streamline the economic development of new drug combinations for malaria and potentially also in other therapeutic areas.
