Rosetting in <em>Plasmodium vivax</em>: a cytoadhesion phenotype associated with anaemia (Publications)
peripheral isolates from pregnant women do not exhibit a prominent adhesion to CSA, although other parasite phenotypes still unknown may increase the propagation of certain P. vivax clones observed among

combination therapy (NECT) to WHO Model Lists of Essential Medicines against second stage HAT, where parasites have invaded the central nervous system (CNS). The pharmacology of a potential orally available
FlexiChip package: an universal microarray with a dedicated analysis software for high-thoughput SNPs detection linked to anti-malarial drug... (Publications)
Previously published microarray probes detecting single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) associated with parasite resistance to anti-malarial drugs (ResMalChip) were adapted for a universal microarray FlexiChip
Identification of cryptic <em>Anopheles</em> mosquito species by molecular protein profiling (Publications)
cally identical sibling species that play different roles in the transmission of pathogens and parasites. Currently PCR diagnostics are used to distinguish between sibling species. PCR based methods are
Modelling the epidemiological impact of intermittent preventive treatment against malaria in infants (Publications)
potential benefits of avoiding fevers on immunity and the effect of sub-therapeutic levels of SP on parasite dynamics. The baseline model reproduced the pattern of results reasonably well. None of the models
Rifampicin/Cotrimoxazole/Isoniazid versus mefloquine or quinine + sulfadoxine- pyrimethamine for malaria: a randomized trial1 (Publications)
population (72 Cotrifazid, 71 mefloquine, and 75 quinine + SP), clinical failure rate (symptoms and parasite load) on day 14 was equivalent for the three groups (0% for Cotrifazid and mefloquine; 1% for quinine

Selection of mosquito life-histories: a hidden weapon against malaria? (Publications)
driving selection for a shift in mosquito life history that reduces their ability to transmit malaria parasites. Specifically it is hypothesized that by substantially increasing the extrinsic rate of mortality
Detectability of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> clones (Publications)
the 48-hour periodicity of P. falciparum. The results suggest that the detectability of a given parasite clone changes over time, at an unknown rate, but fast enough to regard blood samples taken one week
