Mefloquine - an aminoalcohol with promising antischistosomal properties in mice (Publications)
mefloquine, which is widely and effectively used for the treatment of malaria, has an impact on schistosomiasis in areas where both malaria and schistosomiasis co-exist
Habitat characterization and spatial distribution of <em>Anopheles </em>sp. mosquito larvae in Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) during an extended dry period (Publications)
INTRODUCTION: By 2030, more than 50% of the African population will live in urban areas. Controlling malaria reduces the disease burden and further improves economic development. As a complement to treated [...] every stagnant open water body, including very polluted ones, have to be considered as potential malaria vector breeding sites

gametocyte carriage and density is essential to design interventions that most effectively reduce malaria human-to-mosquito transmission. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax [...] 178/348, P. vivax 235/398). CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE: Interventions to reduce human-to-mosquito malaria transmission in moderate-high endemicity settings will have the greatest impact when children are
