A Theoretical Analysis of the Geography of Schistosomiasis in Burkina Faso Highlights the Roles of Human Mobility and Water Resources Development in Disease Transmission

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Natalie Claire Ceperley, Theophile Mande, Francisco Javier Perez Saez, Yeli Mariam Sou, Marino Gatto

We study the geography of schistosomiasis across Burkina Faso by means of a spatially explicit model of water-based disease dynamics. The model quantitatively addresses the geographic stratification of disease burden in a novel framework by explicitly acco ...

Leads for antitubercular compounds from kinase inhibitor library screens

Stewart Cole, Gerardo Turcatti, Marc Chambon, Damiano Banfi, Ruben Hartkoorn, Edina Rita Székely, Sophie Magnet

Discovering new drugs to treat tuberculosis more efficiently and to overcome multidrug resistance is a world health priority. To find antimycobacterial scaffolds, we screened a kinase inhibitor library of more than 12,000 compounds using an integrated stra ...

A Structural Analysis of the Health Expenditures and Portfolio Choices of Retired Agents

Julien Hugonnier, Pascal St-Amour, Florian Pelgrin

Richer and healthier agents tend to hold riskier portfolios and spend proportionally less on health expenditures. Potential explanations include health and wealth effects on preferences, expected longevity or disposable total wealth. Using HRS data, we per ...
