Vaccines to Control Drug Resistance in India

In the Journal of Agricultural Economics, OHT and collaborators find that reducing antibiotic use in livestock may cause short-term production challenges, but the long-term economic impacts of AMR would be far greater. 

In The Lancet, OHT and collaborators advocate for moving beyond income-based classifications of countries toward multidimensional approaches that more accurately capture health needs and inequities. 

In the Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, OHT’s Dr. Ramanan Laxminarayan explores how countries can meet the United Nations General Assembly goal of reducing deaths linked to antimicrobial resistance by 10 percent. 

In Epidemics, OHT researchers constructed a realistic synthetic population from census data to represent residents of selected U.S. metropolitan areas. Using these networks, they simulated how a respiratory disease could spread through communities.

In SSRN, an OHT study explores how the time of day influences cognitive performance among children, adolescents, and young adults in India.

Out in Malaria Journal, OHT researchers explore how social and household factors influence malaria and other mosquito-borne disease risks in urban cities. 

A review article by OHT researchers in Nature Reviews Microbiology highlights growing links between climate change and antimicrobial resistance. 

In a collaborative study in the Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, OHT researchers show how differences in women’s access to education and employment are closely linked to how antibiotics are used across countries. 

 In BMJ Global Health, OHT researchers find that excise taxes on tobacco, alcohol, and sugary drinks can improve health outcomes and strengthen public finances.
