Funded Activity Summary

Mosquito-borne disease affects millions of people in Australia and overseas. Reducing the prevalence of these diseases requires an understanding of their transmission, drug resistance and role of external factors such as climate. This project will use newly developed mathematical and statistical tools to investigate transmission of malaria, and improve the reporting of Ross River and Barmah Forest viruses and dengue. Project outcomes will assist the development of evidence based policy.
