Mathematical models developed for studying malaria dynamics often focus on a single,
homogeneous population. However, human movement connects environments with …

We formulate and analyze a mathematical model for malaria with treatment and the well-
known three levels of resistance in humans. The model incorporates both sensitive and …

Malaria is a public health problem for more than 2 billion people globally. About 219 million
cases of malaria occur worldwide and 660,000 people die, mostly (91%) in the African …

Vector-borne diseases provide unique challenges to public health because the
epidemiology is so closely tied to external environmental factors such as climate, landscape …

Biolarvicides are in use in several parts of the world for malaria vector control. We propose a
five compartment dynamical systems model to study malaria transmission when …

The primary focus of malaria research and control has been on Plasmodium falciparum, the
most severe of the four Plasmodium species causing human disease. However, the …

Aims: To investigate the optimal control strategy for Plasmodium knowlesi malaria in
humans and macaques. Methodology: A Plasmodium knowlesi malaria model was …

Superinfection, a phenomenon that an individual infected by one HIV strain is re-infected by
the second heterologous HIV strain, occurs in HIV infection. A mathematical model is …

Background: The morphology of red blood cells (RBCs) is altered significantly during the
maturation stages of malaria parasites, which include ring, trophozoite, and schizont. There …

Co-infection is the simultaneous infection of a host by multiple pathogen species. This thesis
explores the use of co-infection models in understanding how interactions between multiple …
