Internalised racism stems from widely known and discussed institutional racial discrimination, which perpetuates epistemic injustice, social injustice and health inequities in global health. In this article, reflecting on our experie…
Clinical needs assessment to inform development of a new assay to detect antimalarial drugs in patient samples
Point-of-care assays have greatly increased access to diagnostic information and improved healthcare outcomes globally, especially in the case of tropical diseases in rural settings. Increased recognition of the impact of these tools and increased funding, along with advances in technology have led to a surge in development of new assays. However, many new tools fail to fulfill their intended purpose due to a lack of clinical impact, operational …
Expert perspectives on the introduction of Triple Artemisinin-based Combination Therapies (Tacts) in Southeast Asia
The study provides a structured oversight of malaria experts' perceptions on the major advantages, disadvantages and implementation challenges for introducing TACTs in Southeast Asia, over current practices of rotating ACTs when treatment failure is observed. The findings can benefit strategic decision making in the battle against drug-resistant malaria
