Together with Alfred Amambua - Ngwa and in collaboration with the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, he is working to characterise the diversity of the local Plasmodium populations by genome sequencing, and to devise suitable SNP markers for defining the spatial and temporal spread of malaria in The Gambia at the village level.

Interfering with the biological pathways that link eating to parasite rhythms — perhaps through diet, or drugs that manipulate the process — could reduce both the severity and spread of malaria infection, researchers suggest. (sciencedaily.com)
Sexual conflict in mosquitoes may have worsened spread of malaria. (sciencenews.org)
