A Population Genetic Model for the Initial Spread of Partially Resistant Malaria Parasites under Anti-Malarial Combination Therapy and Weak Intrahost Competition
To develop public-health policies that extend the lifespan of affordable anti-malarial drugs as effective treatment options, it is necessary to understand the evolutionary processes leading to the origin and spread of mutations conferring drug resistance in malarial parasites. We built a population-...
