Putting evolution in elimination: Winning our ongoing battle
                with evolving malaria mosquitoes and parasites

# metadata.dc.description.abstract[].value
Since 2000, the world has made significant progress in reducing
                malaria morbidity and mortality, and several countries in
                Africa, South America and South-East Asia are working hard to
                eliminate the disease. These elimination efforts continue to
                rely heavily on antimalarial drugs and insecticide-based
                interventions, which remain the cornerstones of malaria
                treatment and prevention. However, resistance has emerged
                against nearly every antimalarial drug and insecticide that is
                available. In this review we discuss the evolutionary
                consequences of the way we currently implement antimalarial
                interventions, which is leading to resistance and may ultimately
                lead to control failure, but also how evolutionary principles
                can be applied to extend the lifespan of current and novel
                interventions. A greater understanding of the general
                evolutionary principles that are at the core of emerging
                resistance is urgently needed if we are to develop improved
                resistance management strategies with the ultimate goal to
                achieve a malaria-free world.
