    Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg 94:159-63. 2000
    ..Our findings demonstrate marked differences in exposure to malaria in villages over distances of less than 2 km from mosquito breeding sites and suggest that there are also large differences in immunity between neighbouring settlements...

    S W Lindsay
    Department of Biological Sciences, University of Durham, UK
    Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg 94:37-45. 2000
    ..This approach could be used to produce a sampling frame, based on estimated risk of microfilaraemia, for conducting filariasis surveys in countries that lack accurate distribution maps and thus save on costs...

    S W Lindsay
    Department of Biological Sciences, University of Durham, UK
    Proc Biol Sci 265:847-54. 1998

    M N Bayoh
    Department of Biological Sciences, University of Durham, UK
