On Thursday, July 3, 2025, Achille Jérome Binyang, former PhD student at CRID successfully defended his doctoral thesis at the Faculty of Science of the University of Yaoundé I. Achille Binyang’s research focused on how mosquitoes that carry malaria parasites are becoming resistant to insecticides, and how mechanisms associated to this resistance might affect the…
Drug resistance threatens global malaria eradication efforts, necessitating innovative control strategies. This study examines how Mass Drug Administration (MDA) combined with antimalarial treatment can minimize resistance and improve malaria control. We developed a compartmental mathematical model to evaluate how resistance mutations affect transmission dynamics. The model tracks both treated and untreated populations among infected and…
Scientists, students and researchers now have the opportunity to sequence their samples at the Centre for Research in Infectious Diseases (CRID) at just 9000 FCFA per sample. Affordable, fast and reliable: these are the core principles guiding CRID’s sequencing service. Thanks to our state-of-the-art facilities and our team of qualified scientists, we can deliver high-quality…
