Estimating fine-scale spatiotemporal patterns of Plasmodium falciparum transmission showed an association between entomological inoculation rate and parasite prevalence that emphasizes the value of both measures in malaria surveillance.

A demonstration of the power of routine case data and statistical modelling to guide the allocation of anti-malarial interventions in a resource-constrained setting.

While flooding events may drive spillover transmission of Leptospira spp. through dispersal of the bacteria at low elevations, at higher elevations environmental risk is more localised and directly driven by the distribution of local rat reservoir populations.

High-resolution risk estimates of opisthorchiasis were produced in major endemic countries of Southeast Asia, providing valuable information for guiding disease control and serving as a baseline for future progress assessment.

Prevention and antivenom treatment could reduce snakebite deaths, which killed 1.2 million Indians from 2000-2019, about 70% of which occurred in eight states, and half during four rainy months.

The incorporation of as yet underused local epidemiological data on α-thalassaemia in Southeast Asia within a geostatistical model suggests that the burden of severe α-thalassaemia forms may have been underestimated.

The systematic field testing of excreta from Australian native possums for the bacterial pathogen Mycobacterium ulcerans can be used to build statistical models that predict the regions in southeast Australia where humans will subsequently get Buruli ulcer.

An analysis of papers in which two or more authors shared first-author position found that male authors were more likely than female authors to appear first in the author list.

Quantitative statistical modelling reveals local coordination of stochastic gene transcription dynamics in pituitary tissue, which is relevant for integrated tissue responses to physiological stimuli.

Scale-up of piped water coverage in the local community strongly protects against S. haematobium re-infection intensity among primary school-going children following treatment with praziquantel.
