Background Dengue is the most important mosquito-borne viral disease affecting humans.
The only prevention measure currently available is the control of its vectors, primarily Aedes …

Background Aedes aegypti is one of the most important mosquito vectors of human disease.
The development of spatial models for Ae. aegypti provides a promising start toward model …

New approaches for control of the dengue vector Aedes aegypti (L.) are being developed,
including the potential introduction of life-shortening symbiont bacteria into field populations …

Background Aedes aegypti (L.) is the primary vector of dengue, the most important arboviral
infection globally. Until an effective vaccine is licensed and rigorously administered, Ae …

Abstract MOMA (Model Of Mosquito Aedes) is a spatially explicit agent-based simulation
model of Aedes aegypti female mosquito, the dengue vector. The model aims to produce …

We develop a stochastic spatial model for Aedes aegypti populations based on the life cycle
of the mosquito and its dispersal. Our validation corresponds to a monitoring study …

Strategies to minimize dengue transmission commonly rely on vector control, which aims to
maintain Ae. aegypti density below a theoretical threshold. Mosquito abundance is …

The dispersal of the invasive mosquito Aedes aegypti in urbanized areas has received
attention due to the hazard that this species poses to human health. However, we know little …

Background The discovery of CRISPR-based gene editing and its application to homing-
based gene drive systems has been greeted with excitement, for its potential to control …

The dengue virus is a vector-borne disease transmitted by mosquito Aedes aegypti and the
incidence is strongly influenced by temperature and humidity which vary seasonally. To …
