Odhiambo E, Mellencamp K, Ondigo B, Hamre K, Beeson J, Opi D, et al.
Malar J . 2025 Mar; 24(1):73. PMID: 40033373
Background: Defining antibody correlates of protection against clinical malaria in areas of low and unstable transmission is challenging because of limited malaria cases in these areas. Additionally, clinical malaria affects...

Byrne I, Nelli L, Urena K, Desir L, Hilario Rodriguez C, Michelen Strofer N, et al.
Am J Trop Med Hyg . 2025 Jan; PMID: 39836973
As countries strive for malaria elimination, it is crucial to gather sufficient evidence to confirm the absence of transmission. Routine surveillance data often lack the sensitivity to detect community transmission...

Hamre K, Dismer A, Kishore N, Travers A, McGee K, Fouche B, et al.
Am J Trop Med Hyg . 2024 Aug; 111(4):770-779. PMID: 39137752
The Ministry of Public Health and Population in Haiti is committed to malaria elimination. In 2017, we used novel methods to conduct a census, monitor progress, and return to sampled...

Desir L, Hamre K, Madsen Beau De Rochars V, Lemoine J, Telfort M, Noland G
Am J Trop Med Hyg . 2024 Jun; 111(3_Suppl):81-88. PMID: 38917782
Haiti is endemic for lymphatic filariasis (LF) and malaria, two mosquito-transmitted parasitic diseases targeted for elimination. The World Health Organization recommends a transmission assessment survey (TAS-1) to determine if LF...

Sadiq S, Hamre K, Kumar S, Bazur-Leidy S, Desir L, Desir M, et al.
Int Health . 2024 Mar; 16(Supplement_1):i68-i77. PMID: 38547350
Background: Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) inflict significant comorbid disability on the most vulnerable communities; yet interventions targeting the mental health of affected communities are lacking. A pilot study to assess...

Hamre K, Dismer A, Rogier E, van den Hoogen L, Williamson J, Kishore N, et al.
Am J Trop Med Hyg . 2023 Jun; 109(2):258-272. PMID: 37277106
Targeting malaria interventions in elimination settings where transmission is heterogeneous is essential to ensure the efficient use of resources. Identifying the most important risk factors among persons experiencing a range...

Chang M, Impoinvil D, Hamre K, Dalexis P, Merilien J, Dismer A, et al.
Am J Trop Med Hyg . 2023 May; 108(6):1127-1139. PMID: 37160282
For a malaria elimination strategy, Haiti's National Malaria Control Program piloted a mass drug administration (MDA) with indoor residual spraying (IRS) in 12 high-transmission areas across five communes after implementing...

Jaramillo-Underwood A, Impoinvil D, Sutcliff A, Hamre K, Joseph V, van den Hoogen L, et al.
J Infect Dis . 2022 Jun; 226(8):1461-1469. PMID: 35711005
Serological data can provide estimates of human exposure to both malaria vector and parasite based on antibody responses. A multiplex bead-based assay was developed to simultaneously detect IgG to Anopheles...

J Infect Dis . 2021 May; 225(9):1611-1620. PMID: 33993294
Background: Haiti is planning targeted interventions to accelerate progress toward malaria elimination. In the most affected department (Grande-Anse), a combined mass drug administration (MDA) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) campaign...
