1. Whole-organism phenotypic screening methods used in early-phase anthelmintic drug discovery (Publications)

   Whole-organism phenotypic screening methods used in early-phase anthelmintic drug discovery

   Relevance:

   Diseases caused by parasitic helminths (worms) represent a major global health burden in both humans and animals. As vaccines against helminths have yet to achieve a prominent role in worm control, an

2. Point-of-care sample preparation and automated quantitative detection of <em>Schistosoma haematobium </em>using mobile phone microscopy (Publications)

   Point-of-care sample preparation and automated quantitative detection of <em>Schistosoma haematobium </em>using mobile phone microscopy

   Relevance:

   Schistosoma haematobium continues to pose a significant public health burden despite ongoing global control efforts. One of several barriers to sustained control (and ultimately elimination) is the la

3. Fluctuating temperature modifies heat-mortality association around the globe (Publications)

   Fluctuating temperature modifies heat-mortality association around the globe

   Relevance:

   Studies have investigated the effects of heat and temperature variability (TV) on mortality. However, few assessed whether TV modifies the heat-mortality association. Data on daily temperature and mor

4. Productivity loss and cost of bovine tuberculosis for the dairy livestock sector in Ethiopia (Publications)

   Productivity loss and cost of bovine tuberculosis for the dairy livestock sector in Ethiopia

   Relevance:

   Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) is endemic in Ethiopia. Although upgraded dairy cattle account for only 1% of the total cattle population, they are the backbone of the marketed milk production in the countr

5. The phylodynamic and spread of the invasive Asian malaria vectors, <em>Anopheles stephensi</em>, in Sudan (Publications)

   The phylodynamic and spread of the invasive Asian malaria vectors, <em>Anopheles stephensi</em>, in Sudan

   Relevance:

   Anopheles stephensi is an invasive Asian malaria vector that initially emerged in Africa in 2012 and was reported in Sudan in 2019. We investigated the distribution and population structure of An. ste

   Diagnostic performance and comparison of ultrasensitive and conventional rapid diagnostic test, thick blood smear and quantitative PCR for detection of low-density <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> infections during a controlled human malaria infection study

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: Progress towards malaria elimination has stagnated, partly because infections persisting at low parasite densities comprise a large reservoir contributing to ongoing malaria transmission a

   "<em>In starvation, a bone can also be meat</em>": a mixed methods evaluation of factors associated with discarding of long-lasting insecticidal nets in Bagamoyo, Tanzania

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: Between 2000 and 2019, more than 1.8 billion long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) were distributed in Africa. While the insecticidal durability of LLINs is around 3 years, nets are commo

   Cumulative antibiotic exposure in the first five years of life: estimates for 45 low- and middle-income countries from demographic and health survey data

   Relevance:

   BACKGROUND: Estimates of the total cumulative exposure to antibiotics of children in low-resource settings, and the source of these treatments, are limited. METHODS: We estimated the average number of

    An evidence synthesis approach for combining different data sources illustrated using entomological efficacy of insecticides for indoor residual spraying

    Relevance:

    BACKGROUND: Prospective malaria public health interventions are initially tested for entomological impact using standardised experimental hut trials. In some cases, data are collated as aggregated cou
