Modeling and Optimal Control Applied to a Vector Borne Disease [PDF]
Proc. 12th Int. Conf. Comp. Math. Meth. Sci. Eng. (CMMSE'2012),
Murcia 02-05 July 2012 (Ed: J. Vigo-Aguiar), Vol. III (2012), 1063--1070, 2012 A model with six mutually-exclusive compartments related to Dengue disease is presented. In this model there are three vector control tools: insecticides (larvicide and adulticide) and mechanical control. The problem is studied using an Optimal Control (OC) approach. The human data for the model is based on the Cape Verde Dengue outbreak.

A Possible Link Between Pyriproxyfen and Microcephaly [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The Zika virus is the primary suspect in the large increase in microcephaly cases in 2015-6 in Brazil, however its role is unconfirmed despite individual cases of viral infections found in neural tissue. Here we consider the alternative that the insecticide pyriproxyfen, used in Brazilian drinking water for mosquito control, may actually be the cause ...

The Case for Pyriproxyfen as a Potential Cause for Microcephaly; From Biology to Epidemiology [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The Zika virus has been found in individual cases but has not been confirmed as the cause of in the large number of cases of microcephaly in Brazil in 2015-6. Indeed, disparities between the incidence of Zika and microcephaly across geographic locations has led to questions about the virus's role.
