Strengthening surveillance systems for malaria elimination by integrating molecular and genomic data (Publications)
elimination efforts are currently going on with the objective of reducing malaria morbidity and mortality by 90% and malaria elimination in at least 35 countries by 2030. Strengthening surveillance systems [...] Unprecedented efforts in malaria control over the last 15 years have led to a substantial decrease in both morbidity and mortality in most endemic settings. However, these progresses have stalled over [...] such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and quantitative PCR (qPCR) are...
