ViALLIN MUsAcc - Visual Analysis of Long Lasting Insecticidal Nets to Maximise Universal Access

Mosquito bednets have been vital in reducing the malaria burden among children over the last 20 years. Reductions have stagnated and resources available for control are half what is needed to meet malaria control milestones. Standard long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLIN) are assumed to have a…

BITE - Bite Interruption Towards Elimination

There has been substantial progress in reducing malaria transmission in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS). However progress has stalled with reports of increase in the number of cases, multi-drug resistant malaria and pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes. The risk of infection is greatest among mobile…

Estimating the extent, patterns and consequences of heterogeneity in malaria dynamics

Background

The uneven distribution of malaria is apparent on a small scale, within a single study site or even cluster of houses. Transmission varies with mosquito densities related to breeding sites, but sources of heterogeneity in other environmental, behavioural and economic factors have also…
