Improving estimates of antimalarial drug resistance
Objectives
This project aims to generate the first data-driven, predictive maps of the changing landscape of artemisinin resistance in Asia.
Principal Institution
Principal Investigators / Focal Persons
Rationale and Abstract
Antimalarial drugs are essential for the elimination of malaria. Resistance to all currently available antimalarials, including the pivotal artemisinin derivatives, has emerged and is spreading. These maps fill in the gaps where no information is available and can be used by health agencies to guide new polices about where and when the drug is appropriate to use.
