of malaria-related interventions. Our work is based on the OpenMalaria modelling platform developed by the Swiss TPH and collaborators. OpenMalaria has been developed as a decision-making support tool
Building-related health impacts in European and Chinese cities: a scalable assessment method (Publications)
impacts, both positive and negative, on public health. Our main objective was to develop a generic open impact model to estimate health impacts of emissions due to heat and power consumption of buildings [...] and large impacts on emissions. However, the life cycle impacts of different fuels is somewhat an open question. CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, we were able to develop a practical model for city-level assessments
Characterization of the Ca2+-gated and voltage-dependent k+-channel slo-1 of nematodes and its interaction with emodepside (Publications)
in the absence of experimentally increased intracellular Ca2+, suggesting that emodepside directly opens C. elegans Slo-1a. Emodepside wash-out did not reverse the effect and the Slo-1 inhibitor verruculogen [...] properties among species. Most importantly, this study showed for the first time that emodepside directly opens a Slo-1 channel, significantly improving the understanding of the mode of action of this drug class

development and use of an individual-based model of malaria transmission dynamics known as OpenMalaria. This model is an open-source tool for simulating the dynamics of malaria transmission and epidemiology, and [...] Swiss TPH, our OpenMalaria model is used by a wide range of modellers worldwide. A new collaboration with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation supports the improvement and maintenance of OpenMalaria as well
