The symptoms of malaria occur during the blood stage of infection, when parasites invade and replicate within human erythrocytes. The PfPCRCR complex1, containing PfRH5 (refs. 2,3), PfCyRPA, PfRIPR, PfCSS and PfPTRAMP, is essential for erythrocyte in...

Surveillance and risk assessment for early detection of emerging infectious diseases in livestock (2023)
Journal Article

Those who work in the area of surveillance and prevention of emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) face a challenge in accurately predicting where infection will occur and who (or what) it will affect. Establishing surveillance and control programmes f... Read More about Surveillance and risk assessment for early detection of emerging infectious diseases in livestock.

Reshaping surveillance for infectious diseases: less chasing of pathogens and more monitoring of drivers (2023)
Journal Article

Animal health surveillance, despite its name, tends to focus on looking for disease. Often this involves searching for cases of infection with known pathogens ('pathogen chasing'). Such an approach is both resource intensive and limited by the requir... Read More about Reshaping surveillance for infectious diseases: less chasing of pathogens and more monitoring of drivers.

Individual Monitoring of Activity and Lameness in Conventional and Slower-Growing Breeds of Broiler Chickens Using Accelerometers (2023)
Journal Article

Accelerometers are increasingly being investigated to detect animal behaviour as a method for monitoring individual welfare that overcomes manual challenges associated with time, re-source, and discrete sampling. We investigated the effects of broile... Read More about Individual Monitoring of Activity and Lameness in Conventional and Slower-Growing Breeds of Broiler Chickens Using Accelerometers.
