  • Characterizing mobility patterns and malaria risk factors in semi-nomadic populations of Northern Kenya 
    Meredith, Hannah R.; Wesolowski, Amy; Okoth, Dennis; Maraga, Linda; Ambani, George; Chepkwony, Tabitha; Abel, Lucy; Kipkoech, Joseph; Lokoel, Gilchrist; Esimit, Daniel; Lokemer, Samuel; Maragia, James; Prudhomme O’Meara, Wendy; Obala, Andrew A. (PLOS ONE, 2024-03-13)
    While many studies have characterized mobility patterns and disease dynamics of settled populations, few have focused on more mobile populations. Highly mobile groups are often at higher disease risk due to their regular ...
  • Mosquito and human characteristics influence natural Anopheline biting behavior and Plasmodium falciparum transmission 
    Markwalter, Christine F; Lapp, Zena; Abel, Lucy; Kimachas, Emmah; Omollo, Evans; Freedman, Elizabeth; Chepkwony, Tabitha; Amunga, Mark; McCormick, Tyler; Bérubé, Sophie; Mangeni, Judith N; Wesolowski, Amy; Obala, Andrew A; Taylor, Steve M T; O’Meara, Wendy P (medRxiv, 2024-01-25)
    The human infectious reservoir of malaria Plasmodium falciparum parasites is governed by the efficiency of parasite transmission during vector human contact as well as mosquito biting preferences. Understanding mosquito ...
  • Plasmodium falciparum importation does not sustain malaria transmission in a semi-arid region of Kenya 
    MarkwalterI, Christine F.; Menya, Diana; Wesolowski, Amy; Esimit, Daniel; Lokoel, Gilchrist; Kipkoech, Joseph; Freedman, Elizabeth; Sumner, Kelsey M.; Abel, Lucy; Ambani, George; Meredith, Hannah R.; Taylor, Steve M.; Obala, Andrew A.; O’Meara, Wendy P. (PLOS Global Public Health, 2022-08-10)
    Human movement impacts the spread and transmission of infectious diseases. Recently, a large reservoir of Plasmodium falciparum malaria was identified in a semi-arid region of northwestern Kenya historically considered ...
  • Superinfection plays an important role in the acquisition of complex Plasmodium falciparum infections among female Anopheles mosquitoes 
    Bérubé, Sophie; Freedman, Betsy; Menya, Diana; Kipkoech, Joseph; Abel, Lucy; Lapp, Zena; Taylor, Steve M.; O’Meara, Wendy Prudhomme; Obala, Andrew A.; Wesolowski, Amy (Biorxiv, 2022-12-07)
    Studies of human malaria infections with multiple, genetically distinct parasites have illuminated mechanisms of malaria transmission. However, few studies have used the genetic diversity in mosquito infections to understand ...
