Differential patterns of infection and disease with <em>P. falciparum</em> and <em>P. vivax</em> in young Papua New Guinean children (Publications)
of P. vivax infection and illness is often concentrated in younger age groups. Experiences from malaria therapy patients indicate that immunity is acquired faster to P. vivax than to P. falciparum challenge
<em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> heterochromatin protein 1 marks genomic loci linked to phenotypic variation of exported virulence factors (Publications)
Epigenetic processes are the main conductors of phenotypic variation in eukaryotes. The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum employs antigenic variation of the major surface antigen PfEMP1, encoded by
Reported reasons for not using a mosquito net when one is available: a review of the published literature (Publications)
BACKGROUND: A review of the barriers to mosquito net use in malaria-endemic countries has yet to be presented in the published literature despite considerable research interest in this area. This paper
