    We have recently analysed a lot of the results of simulation experiments we ran over the last few months. Some of the results are currently being written up for publication, others were already presented to the malaria research community at scientific meetings. Here are the links to summaries of presentations given recently at the Parasites to Prevention: Advances in the understanding of malaria conference, and the Annual meeting of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene.

    Modeling the effects of vector control interventions in reducing malaria transmission, morbidity and mortality

    Predicted impact of mosquito-stage transmission-blocking vaccines using an ensemble of microsimulations

    Using ensemble modeling to predict the cost-effectiveness of pre-erythrocytic malaria vaccines


    Modeling the effects of vector control interventions in reducing malaria transmission and disease


    Thank you for your ongoing support.

      Now THAT was a useful update: Thank you so much. I look forward to seeing what you have been able to do with the modeling results and through your/Malaria Control's efforts.

      What a nice holiday gift.
