Genetic validation of <em>Pf</em>FKBP35 as an antimalarial drug target (Publications)
Plasmodium falciparum accounts for the majority of over 600,000 malaria-associated deaths annually. Parasites resistant to nearly all antimalarials have emerged and the need for drugs with alternative
Design, synthesis and evaluation of praziquantel analogues and new molecular hybrids as potential antimalarial and anti-schistosomal agents (Publications)
Malaria and schistosomiasis are two of the neglected tropical diseases that persistently wreak havoc worldwide. Although many antimalarial drugs such as chloroquine are readily available, the emergence
A potent and selective reaction hijacking inhibitor of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> tyrosine tRNA synthetase exhibits single dose oral efficacy... (Publications)
ML471 is well-tolerated and shows single dose oral efficacy in the SCID mouse model of P. falciparum malaria. We confirm that ML471 is a reaction hijacking inhibitor that is converted into a tight binding Tyr-ML471
Molecular epidemiology and genetic diversity of disappearing <em>Plasmodium vivax</em> in southern Thailand (Publications)
The evolution of genetic diversity and population structure of Plasmodium vivax as malaria elimination approaches remains unclear. This study analyzed the genetic variation and molecular epidemiology of

A generic schema and data collection forms applicable to diverse entomological studies of mosquitoes (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Standardized schemas, databases, and public data repositories are needed for the studies of malaria vectors that encompass a remarkably diverse array of designs and rapidly generate large data volumes
