SCHISTOSOMA MANSONI INFECTION SUPPRESSES THE GROWTH OF PLASMODIUM YOELII PARASITES IN THE LIVER AND REDUCES GAMETOCYTE INFECTIVITY TO MOSQUITOES.

Schistosoma mansoni infection suppresses the growth of Plasmodium yoelii parasites in the liver and reduces gametocyte infectivity to mosquitoes.

Malaria and schistosomiasis are major parasitic diseases causing morbidity and mortality in the tropics.Epidemiological surveys have revealed coinfection rates of up to 30% among children in Sub-Saharan Africa.To investigate the impact of coinfection of these two parasites on disease epidemiology and pathology, we carried out coinfection studies us

Leveraging Data Locality in Quantum Convolutional Classifiers

Quantum computing (QC) has opened the door to advancements in machine learning (ML) tasks that are currently implemented in the classical domain.Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are classical ML architectures that exploit data locality and possess a simpler structure than a fully connected multi-layer perceptrons (MLPs) without compromising the
