Malaria Elimination Population Genomics Program in Kayin State
exploratoryresearch program · high
Assess how intensive malaria control affects Plasmodium falciparum population genomics under elimination settings and inform future control efforts.
Genomic analysis of 2,270 sequenced P. falciparum infections from 283 malaria posts over 58 months, evaluating parasite population size, resistance allele frequency, relatedness, transmission chains, and mass drug administration effects.
2026 Nature Microbiology publication reporting population genomic changes during a malaria elimination program.
Transmission was reduced by 97%; parasite effective population size decreased; mass drug administration produced founder effects; localized transmission chains remained; artemisinin resistance allele frequency shifted rapidly by 2020.
