E-mail: neal.alexander [at] lshtm.ac.uk

I am based in Cali, Colombia, and employed part time by CIDEIM and part time by LSHTM.  I work largely on dengue, leishmaniasis, lymphatic filariasis and other parasitic and vector-borne diseases.

I previously worked at the Papua New Guinea Institute of Medical Research, and the Ahmadu Bello University in Kaduna, Nigeria (seconded from the Institute of Ophthalmology, London).

In 1998 I completed a PhD supervised by Bryan Grenfell in the Department of Zoology, University of Cambridge entitled 'Heterogeneity and the Epidemiology of Lymphatic Filariasis'. I also have a BA in Mathematics and a Diploma in Mathematical Statistics from the same university.

Tenho interesse em trabalhos com flebotomíneos transmissores de leishmaniose visceral no Brasil, taxonomia, fisiologia e ecologia destes vetores, bem como da aplicação da biologia molecular na resolução de problemas taxonômicos e como possibilidade de controle biológico.

*Biology, ecology, molecular studies, and control of Blackflies and mosquitoes.

-Developing molecular markers for species identification of members of Simulium damnosum s.l.

-Identification of members of the S. damnosum complex using Cytotaxonomy 

-Blackflies population studies using molecular (genetic) and cytogenetic (cytotaxonomy) approaches.

-Control of blackflies, vectors of onchocerciasis, through larviciding and other non-chemical methods like 'slash and clear'.

-Control of disease vectors using emerging genetic biocontrol technologies like gene drives. 

-Transmission assessment of filariasis transmission (onchocerciasis and lymphatic filariasis) by xenomintoring.

-Insecticide susceptibility studies in mosquitoes and blackflies.
