Quality control of long-lasting insecticidal nets: are we neglecting it?
Over 2.2 billion long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) for malaria control have been delivered
to recipient countries. LLINs are the largest single item in the global malaria control budget …

Plasticity of host selection by malaria vectors of Papua New Guinea
Background Host selection is an important determinant of vectorial capacity because
malaria transmission increases when mosquitoes feed more on humans than non-humans …
