Population replacement gene drive characteristics for malaria elimination in a range of seasonal transmission settings: a modeling study
2021-11-03
Abstract excerpt
Genetically engineering mosquitoes is a promising new vector control strategy to reinvigorate the fight against malaria in Sub-Saharan Africa. Using an agent-based model of malaria transmission with vector genetics, we examine the impacts of releasing population-replacement gene drive mosquitoes on malaria transmission and quantify the gene drive system parameters required to achieve local elimination within a spa...
