BACKGROUND: Due to the rapid expansion of pyrethroid-resistance in malaria vectors in Africa, Global Plan for Insecticide Resistance Management (GPIRM) has recommended the development of long-lasting [...] populations. PermaNet((R)) Dual thus represents a promising tool, with a high potential to reduce malaria transmission and provide community protection in areas compromised by mosquito vector resistance

Robust Modelling Methodology Leads to Better Understanding of Air Pollution and Health in Europe (News)
https://www.swisstph.ch/en/news/news-detail/news/robust-modelling-methodology-leads-to-better-understanding-of-air-pollution-and-health-in-europe
Air pollution continues to rise at an alarming rate, with death tolls surpassing those of war, malaria and cigarettes according to recent studies. As air pollution continues to become a growing concern [...] computation, focusing on the analysis of very large, space-time data arising mainly in the areas of malaria, neglected tropical diseases, mortality, cancer and environmental epidemiology. Applications of this
