Estimating the extent, patterns and consequences of heterogeneity in malaria dynamics (Projects)
https://www.swisstph.ch/fr/projects/project-detail/project/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, [...] relatively high transmission, have been identified. Heterogeneity has implications for many areas of malaria epidemiology, not least the design of intervention strategies. Whilst the existence of heterogeneity [...] heterogeneity, and inform the design of control strategies and the...

Deciphering Environmental Sensing in Malaria Parasites (Projects)
https://www.swisstph.ch/fr/projects/project-detail/project/deciphering-environmental-sensing-in-malaria-parasites
The Malaria Host Interactions Unit (MHIU) is studying the molecular interface between malaria parasites and their human host. Recent findings revealed the existence of intimate links between parasite [...] inducing specific transcriptional responses. This capability is surprising in light of the fact that malaria parasites have lost canonical nutrient sensing pathways present in other eukaryotic organisms. With
