Malaria prevalence and long-lasting insecticidal net use in rural western Uganda: results of a cross-sectional survey conducted in an area of highly variable malaria transmission intensity
(Malaria journal, 2021)
Background: Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) remain a cornerstone of malaria control, but strategies to sustain universal coverage and high rates of use are not well-defined. A more complete understanding of ...
Ongoing long-lasting insecticide-treated net distribution efforts are 2 insufficient to maintain high rates of use among children in rural Uganda
(medRxiv, 2021)
Background: Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) remain a cornerstone of malaria control, but optimal distribution strategies to sustain universal coverage are not well-defined
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional ...
Comparing field‑collected versus remotely‑sensed variables to model malaria risk in the highlands of western Uganda
(Malaria Journal, 2023)
Background: Malaria risk is not uniform across relatively small geographic areas, such as within a village. This heterogeneity in risk is associated with factors including demographic characteristics, individual behaviours, ...

Permethrin‑treated baby wraps for the prevention of malaria: results of a randomized controlled pilot study in rural Uganda
(Malaria Journal, 2022)
Background: Progress against malaria has stalled and may even be slipping backwards in high-burden countries. This is due to a range of factors including insecticide resistance and mosquito feeding behaviours that limit ...
