Population replacement gene drive characteristics for malaria elimination in a range of seasonal transmission settings: a modelling study

Background

Gene drives are a genetic engineering method where a suite of genes is inherited at higher than Mendelian rates and has been proposed as a promising new vector control strategy to reinvigorate the fight against malaria in sub-Saharan Africa.
