Southeast Asia Center  includes several subprojects:

Sub-project 1: "Malaria epidemiology in Southeast Asia: intra- and inter-country dynamics"
Project 1 will develop an accurate measurement of heterogeneity of the disease burden, and provide essential epidemiological information for developing and evaluating integrated malaria control strategies in multiple sites with varying epidemiological conditions.

 

Sub-project 2: "The malaria vectorial system and new vector control tools in Southeast Asia"
Project 2 aims to understand the ecology of malaria vectors in this region and develop innovative malaria transmission surveillance and control tools.

 

Sub-project 3: "Antimalarial drug resistance in P. falciparum"
Project 3 aims to elucidate the mechanism of artemisinin resistance using a high-throughput, genome-wide analytic tool and parasite populations from areas where artemisinin resistance is emerging.

 

Sub-project 4: "Development of monoclonal antibody-based assays for detection and quantification of artemisinin derivatives"
Project 4 will develop antibody-based methods for quantification of artemisinins under field conditions for monitoring drug quality.

 

Core B: "Data Management and Statistical Core"
This data management and statistical core is created to serve the needs of each project within this malaria research center. In this core, we will establish a robust, secure, and comprehensive data management system to serve all projects and study sites of this center..
