We have recently analysed a lot of the results of simulation experiments we ran over the last few months. Some of the results are currently being written up for publication, others were already presented to the malaria research community at scientific meetings. Here are the links to summaries of presentations given recently at the Parasites to Prevention: Advances in the understanding of malaria (http://biomedcentral.cvent.com/EVENTS/Info/Summary.aspx?e=1c099f13-6568-4bc8-86b2-89ac5268c546) conference, and the Annual meeting of the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (http://www.astmh.org/Home.htm).
