Controlled human malaria infection leads to long-lasting changes in innate and innate-like lymphocyte populations (Publications)
clinically silent. To overcome this limitation, we examined blood samples from a controlled human malaria infection (CHMI) study in a Tanzanian cohort, in which volunteers underwent CHMI with a low or high
Bayesian spatio-temporal modeling of mortality in relation to malaria incidence in western Kenya (Publications)
between malaria transmission intensity and all-cause/malaria mortality. This offers a quick and efficient way to monitor malaria burden. Excess mortality estimates indicate that small changes in malaria incidence [...] spatio-temporal survival models to investigate the relation between mortality (all-cause/malaria-specific) and malaria incidence across all age groups. The analysis adjusted for insecticide-treated net (ITN) [...] positive association with malaria-specific mortality in young...
Tracking development assistance and government health expenditures for 35 malaria-eliminating countries: 1990-2017 (Publications)
financier for malaria, providing 96% of the total external funding for malaria in 2013, with vector control interventions being the highest cost driver in all regions. Government expenditure on malaria, while [...] health to the 35 countries actively pursuing malaria elimination. Where possible, development assistance for health (DAH) was categorized by spend on malaria intervention. A diverse set of data points were [...] were used to estimate government health budgets expenditure on malaria,...
Transcriptional profiling defines dynamics of parasite tissue sequestration during malaria infection (Publications)

Assessing the variability in experimental hut trials evaluating insecticide-treated nets against malaria vectors (Publications)
Experimental hut trials (EHTs) are used to evaluate indoor vector control interventions against malaria vectors in a controlled setting. The level of variability present in the assay will influence whether
Species composition and insecticide resistance in malaria vectors in Ellibou, southern Côte d’Ivoire and first finding of <em>Anopheles... (Publications)
status of the target vector population is important to guide malaria vector control. The aim of this study was to characterize the malaria vector population in terms of species composition, insecticide [...] an early warning sign, as An. arabiensis shows a different biology than the currently documented malaria vectors. Because the local An. gambiae population was still susceptible to malathion, upregulation
