Alex K. Musiime - Infectious Diseases

Author Information

Alex K. Musiime is affiliated with the Infectious Diseases Research Collaboration in Kampala, Uganda. His research primarily focuses on infectious diseases, with a strong emphasis on malaria, which is a significant public health issue in Uganda and other parts of Africa. His work involves studying the dynamics of malaria transmission, the effectiveness of control interventions, and other health outcomes related to infectious diseases.

Research Contributions

Alex K. Musiime has made significant contributions to understanding malaria transmission and control in Uganda. His research includes the study of house design impacts on malaria and other diseases, the effect of seasonality and control interventions on mosquito populations, and the persistence of malaria transmission despite control efforts. His work is crucial in developing effective strategies to combat malaria in regions with varying levels of endemicity. Musiime's studies also include the characterization of mosquito species and factors affecting the use of malaria prevention tools such as insecticide-treated bednets.
