Development and application of theoretical models of Plasmodium transmission to guide malaria elimination efforts

目前，全世界都在努力消除疟疾，但可用来评估亚太地区干预战略影响的工具很少。该项目旨在通过开发间日疟原虫和混合物种感染的模拟模型来解决这一不足，并使用这些新工具来调查各种干预策略可能产生的影响，包括蚊帐、改善获得治疗的机会和大规模药物管理。

There is currently a worldwide endeavour to eliminate malaria but there are few tools available to evaluate the impact of intervention strategies in the Asia-Pacific region. This project aims to address this deficiency by developing simulation models of Plasmodium vivax and mixed species infections, and using these new tools to investigate the likely impact of a variety of intervention strategies including bed nets, improved access to treatment and mass drug administration.
