Molecular methods for tracking residual <em>Plasmodium falciparum </em>transmission in a close-to-elimination setting in Zanzibar (Publications)
essential for surveillance studies conducted to inform malaria control strategies in close-to-elimination settings. Molecular monitoring of residual malaria infections usually requires a large study size, therefore [...] screening large sample sets represents primarily a research tool that should inform the design of malaria elimination strategies. It may also prove beneficial for diagnostic tasks in surveillance-response
Resistance of <em>Anopheles stephensi</em> to selected insecticides used for indoor residual spraying and long-lasting insecticidal nets in Ethiopia (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Malaria, transmitted by the bite of infective female Anopheles mosquitoes, remains a global public health problem. The presence of invasive Anopheles stephensi, capable of transmitting Plasmodium [...] 2016. The ecology of this mosquito species differs from that of Anopheles arabiensis, the primary malaria vector in Ethiopia. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of selected insecticides, which are [...] are used in indoor residual spraying (IRS) and selected long-lasting...

Do bednets including piperonyl butoxide offer additional protection against populations of<em> Anopheles gambiae s.l. </em>that are highly resistant... (Publications)
Malaria control is dependent on the use of longlasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) containing pyrethroids. A new generation of LLINs containing both pyrethroids and the synergist piperonyl butoxide (PBO) [...] (PBO) has been developed in response to increasing pyrethroid resistance in African malaria vectors, but questions remain about the performance of these nets in areas where levels of pyrethroid resistance
Activity refinement of aryl amino acetamides that target the <em>P. falciparum</em> STAR-related lipid transfer 1 protein (Publications)
Malaria is a devastating disease that causes significant morbidity worldwide. The development of new antimalarial chemotypes is urgently needed because of the emergence of resistance to frontline therapies [...] a useful tool for further investigating the druggability of PfSTART1 across the lifecycle of the malaria parasite.

Liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry analysis of affinity chromatography-purified [...] coinfections such as Plasmodium and Leishmania. When fluorescein-labeled PAAs were fed to females of the malaria mosquito vectors Anopheles atroparvus and Anopheles gambiae, persistent fluorescence was observed
Synthesis and structure-activity relationships of new 2-phenoxybenzamides with antiplasmodial activity (Publications)
The 2-phenoxybenzamide 1 from theMedicines for Malaria Venture Malaria Box Project has shown promising multi-stage activity against different strains of P. falciparum. It was successfully synthesized via
