معرفی
Ming-Chieh Lee is a Researcher in the Department of Population Health & Disease Prevention at the University of California, Irvine. His work focuses on malaria epidemiology and vector biology in East Africa, particularly investigating transmission dynamics, insecticide resistance, and environmental drivers of disease spread in Ethiopia and Kenya.
Research Interests: Lee's primary expertise lies in malaria epidemiology, vector-borne disease ecology, and parasitology. His research examines:
- Impact of urbanization, irrigation, and climate on malaria transmission
- Insecticide resistance mechanisms in Anopheles vectors
- Plasmodium-vector interactions and molecular drivers of infectivity
- Seroprevalence of arboviruses in endemic regions
His recent publications (2024-2025) demonstrate a strong focus on malaria vector bionomics, novel intervention strategies, and epidemiologic patterns in urban settings. Key themes include residual transmission in low-transmission areas, invasive vector species (Anopheles stephensi), and genetic determinants of parasite-vector compatibility.
