Insecticide-treated eave nets and window screens for malaria control in Chalinze district, Tanzania: a study protocol for a household randomised... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) have contributed to the reduction of malaria in sub-Saharan Africa, including Tanzania. However, they rely on daily user behaviour and high coverage
Less is more: repellent-treated fabric strips as a substitute for full screening of open eave gaps for indoor and outdoor protection from malaria... (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Providing protection from malaria vector bites, both indoors and outdoors, is crucial to curbing malaria parasite transmission. Screening of house entry points, especially with incorporate
Modified World Health Organization (WHO) tunnel test for higher throughput evaluation of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) considering the effect of... (Publications)
The standard World Health Organization (WHO) tunnel test is a reliable laboratory bioassay used for "free-flying" testing of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) bio-efficacy where mosquitoes pass through
Housing insecurity, housing conditions, and breastfeeding behaviors for medicaid-eligible families in urban settings (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Research exploring associations between exposure to social determinants of health and breastfeeding is needed to identify breastfeeding barriers. Housing insecurity and household condition

Aedes albopictus originates from Southeast Asia and is considered one of the most invasive species globally. This mosquito is a nuisance and a disease vector of significant public health relevance. In
High-throughput barcoding method for the genetic surveillance of insecticide resistance and species identification in <em>Anopheles gambiae... (Publications)
Surveillance of malaria vector species and the monitoring of insecticide resistance are essential to inform malaria control strategies and support the reduction of infections and disease. Genetic barc
Robust, universal tree balance indices (Publications)
Balance indices that quantify the symmetry of branching events and the compactness of trees are widely used to compare evolutionary processes or tree-generating algorithms. Yet, existing indices are n
