contracted the Swiss TPH to migrate MSFeCARE from a closed source software platform to a community driven, open-source alternative: the Community Health Toolkit. Beyond that, the Swiss TPH will implement new clinical
Ensuring transmission through dynamic host environments: host-pathogen interactions in <em>Plasmodium </em>sexual development (Publications)
sexual development, especially host cell remodeling and sequestration in the bone marrow, highlight open questions regarding parasite homing to the tissue, transmigration across the vascular endothelium

The journal is referenced in major databases, including CABI, ISI Web of Knowledge [...] are considering to publish more than two issues per year in the future. Finally, our vision is to open-up a new section predominantly based on visual presentations, including brief video clips, as discussed
Simulation of malaria epidemiology and control in the highlands of western Kenya (Publications)
simulation models of malaria in humans and a deterministic model of malaria in mosquitoes as part of the OpenMalaria platform were parameterized to create a scenario for the study area based on data from ongoing [...] sensitive than expected to changes in vector biting behaviour and climatic patterns.CONCLUSIONS: The OpenMalaria model of P. falciparum transmission can be used to simulate the impact of different combinations
