Insights into Plasmodium vivax Asymptomatic Malaria Infections and Direct Skin-Feeding Assays to Assess Onward Malaria Transmission in the Amazon
(American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2022)
Understanding the reservoir and infectivity of Plasmodium gametocytes to vector mosquitoes is crucial to align strategies aimed at malaria transmission elimination. Yet, experimental information is scarce regarding the ...
Malaria Molecular Epidemiology: Lessons from the International Centers of Excellence for Malaria Research Network
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2015)
Molecular epidemiology leverages genetic information to study the risk factors that affect the frequency and distribution of malaria cases. This article describes molecular epidemiologic investigations currently being ...
Epidemiology of disappearing Plasmodium vivax malaria: a case study in rural Amazonia
(Public Library of Science, 2014)
