Estimating the numbers of malaria infections in blood samples using high-resolution genotyping data (Publications)
People living in endemic areas often habour several malaria infections at once. High-resolution genotyping can distinguish between infections by detecting the presence of different alleles at a polymo
Spatially-explicit risk profiling of<em> Plasmodium falciparum</em> infections at a small scale: a geostatistical modelling approach (Publications)
BACKGROUND: There is a renewed political will and financial support to eradicate malaria. Spatially-explicit risk profiling will play an important role in this endeavour. Patterns of Plasmodium falcip
