Furthermore, survival of malaria transmitting Anopheles mosquitoes is strongly decreased after feeding on humans recently treated [...] . Currently, mass drug administration of ivermectin is under investigation as a potential novel malaria vector control tool to reduce Plasmodium transmission by mosquitoes.

BACKGROUND: Insecticide-based malaria vector control is increasingly undermined due to the development of insecticide resistance in mosquitoes. Insecticide resistance may partially be related to the use [...] s between the type of agricultural practices and certain insecticide resistance profiles in the malaria vector An. gambiae s.l. which might arise from the use of pesticides deployed for protecting crops

We work on diseases such as malaria, leishmaniasis and dengue fever, which primarily affect poorer countries and marginalised communities [...] development of new medicines. We can’t tackle tomorrow’s challenges with the tools of yesterday. In malaria, where there hasn’t been a new medicine in 25 years, drug resistance is on the rise.

Palladium-catalysed synthesis of arylnaphthoquinones as antiprotozoal and antimycobacterial agents (Publications)
Malaria and tuberculosis are still among the leading causes of death in low-income countries. The 1,4-naphthoquinone (NQ) scaffold can be found in a variety of anti-infective agents. Herein, we report
