A simulation model of African <it>Anopheles </it>ecology and population dynamics for the analysis of malaria transmission

A simulation model of African <it>Anopheles </it>ecology and population dynamics for the analysis of malaria transmission

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Malaria 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...
