A simulation model of African Anopheles ecology and population dynamics for the analysis of malaria transmission
Abstract
BackgroundMalaria is one of the oldest and deadliest infectious diseases in humans. Many mathematical models of malaria have been developed during the past century, and applied to potential interventions. However, malaria remains uncontrolled and is increasing in many areas, as are vector and parasite resistance to insecticides and drugs.MethodsThis study presents a simulation model of African malaria vectors. This individual-based model …
