A methodological framework for the improved use of routine health system data to evaluate national malaria control programs: evidence from Zambia (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Due to challenges in laboratory confirmation, reporting completeness, timeliness, and health access, routine incidence data from health management information systems (HMIS) have rarely be
Identification of <em>T. brucei</em>-subgroup strains isolated from game (Publications)
Several T. brucei-subgroup strains isolated from game were investigated with the blood incubation infectivity test (BIIT) and in human volunteers. Original isolates and their clones derivatives were t
KvarQ: targeted and direct variant calling from fastq reads of bacterial genomes (Publications)
BACKGROUND: High-throughput DNA sequencing produces vast amounts of data, with millions of short reads that usually have to be mapped to a reference genome or newly assembled. Both reference-based map
Distribution and attachment of <em>Trypanosoma (Nannomonas) congolense</em> in the proximal part of the proboscis of<em> Glossina morsitans... (Publications)
The distribution and attachment of Trypanosoma congolense were investigated in the proximal part of the proboscis of Glossina m. morsitans. In the food canal, epimastigotes and trypomastigotes formed
The ultrastructure of cultured <em>Plasmodium gallinaceum </em>ookinetes: a comparison of intact stages with forms damaged by extracts from blood fed,... (Publications)
The ultrastructure of intact, mature and immature ookinetes of Plasmodium gallinaceum is compared with corresponding stages which have been damaged by Aedes aegypti extracts prepared during blood dige
Genome and phylogenetic analyses of <em>Trypanosoma evansi</em> reveal extensive similarity to <em>T. brucei </em>and multiple independent origins for... (Publications)
Two key biological features distinguish Trypanosoma evansi from the T. brucei group: independence from the tsetse fly as obligatory vector, and independence from the need for functional mitochondrial
