A meta-research study revealed several challenges in obtaining placebos for investigator-initiated drug trials (Publications)
OBJECTIVES: To systematically assess the kind of placebos used in investigator-initiated randomized controlled trials (RCTs), where they are obtained, and what hurdles exist in obtaining them. STUDY D
Development of Europe-wide models for particle elemental composition using supervised linear regression and random forest (Publications)
We developed Europe-wide models of long-term exposure to eight elements (copper, iron, potassium, nickel, sulfur, silicon, vanadium, and zinc) in particulate matter with diameter
Immunogenicity and protective efficacy of radiation-attenuated and chemo-attenuated PfSPZ vaccines in Equatoguinean adults (Publications)
Plasmodium falciparum sporozoite (PfSPZ) Vaccine (radiation-attenuated, aseptic, purified, cryopreserved PfSPZ) and PfSPZ-CVac (infectious, aseptic, purified, cryopreserved PfSPZ administered to subje
Discovery of FNDR-20123, a histone deacetylase inhibitor for the treatment of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> malaria (Publications)
BACKGROUND: Emergence of anti-malarial drug resistance and perpetual increase in malaria incidence necessitates the development of novel anti-malarials. Histone deacetylases (HDAC) has been shown to b
Cohort profile: molecular signature in pregnancy (MSP): longitudinal high-frequency sampling to characterise cross-omic trajectories in pregnancy in a... (Publications)
PURPOSE: A successful pregnancy relies on the interplay of various biological systems. Deviations from the norm within a system or intersystemic interactions may result in pregnancy-associated complic
Towards integrated surveillance-response systems for the prevention of future pandemics (Publications)
Most human pathogens originate from non-human hosts and certain pathogens persist in animal reservoirs. The transmission of such pathogens to humans may lead to self-sustaining chains of transmission.
Blood gene transcript signature profiling in pregnancies resulting in preterm birth: a systematic review (Publications)
Objective: To pursue a systematic review and summarise the current evidence for the potential of transcriptome molecular profiling in investigating the preterm phenotype. Study design: We systematical
