Deconstructing design thinking as a tool for the implementation of a population health initiative (Publications)
BACKGROUND: The translation of evidence-based practices and rapid uptake of innovations into global health practice is challenging. Design thinking is a consultative process involving multiple stakeho
Different classes of genomic inserts contribute to human antibody diversity (Publications)
Recombination of antibody genes in B cells can involve distant genomic loci and contribute a foreign antigen-binding element to form hybrid antibodies with broad reactivity for Plasmodium falciparum.
2-(Nitroaryl)-5-substituted-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives with antiprotozoal activities: <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in vivo </em>study (Publications)
Nitro-containing compounds are a well-known class of anti-infective agents, especially in the field of anti-parasitic drug discovery. HAT or sleeping sickness is a neglected tropical disease caused by
Europe-wide air pollution modeling from 2000 to 2019 using geographically weighted regression (Publications)
Previous European land-use regression (LUR) models assumed fixed linear relationships between air pollution concentrations and predictors such as traffic and land use. We evaluated whether including s
Phenotypic screening of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors against <em>Schistosoma mansoni</em> (Publications)
Schistosomiasis is a prevalent yet neglected tropical parasitic disease caused by the Schistosoma genus of blood flukes. Praziquantel is the only currently available treatment, hence drug resistance p
Spatiotemporal mapping of malaria incidence in Sudan using routine surveillance data (Publications)
Malaria is a serious threat to global health, with over [Formula: see text] of the cases reported in 2020 by the World Health Organization in African countries, including Sudan. Sudan is a low-income
General insights on obstacles to dog vaccination in Chad on community and institutional level (Publications)
Domestic dogs are responsible for 95% of all human rabies cases worldwide and continue to be the main reservoir for this fatal virus in African and Asian countries. Interrupting the spread of the dise
Chemically diverse <em>S. mansoni</em> HDAC8 inhibitors reduced viability in worm larval and adult stages (Publications)
Schistosoma mansoni HDAC8 is a reliable target to fight schistosomiasis, and several inhibitors have been reported in the literature up to now. Nevertheless, only a few displayed selectivity over the
Integrating statistical and agent-based modelling for activity-based ambient air pollution exposure assessment (Publications)
Assessment of long-term human exposure to spatiotemporally highly variable air pollution requires accounting for human space–time activity. Individual exposure and space–time track data are not availa
