Dr Iqbal Elyazar

Epidemiology and Geospatial Programme Manager

Iqbal has focused on biostatistics, disease surveillance, spatial epidemiology, and malaria elimination strategies for 17 years.

He aims to develop a quantitative framework for human mobility and assess the feasibility of eliminating malaria in Indonesia. The work will prioritize three areas: using mobile phone data to explore the patterns of human movement across the archipelago, determining the likely sources, risks, and the number of imported malaria cases, and mapping the operational feasibility of and constraints on malaria elimination.

This research will be essential for comprehensively improving the national evidence-based malaria control strategies to reach the pre-elimination stage by 2020 and to be free of malaria in 2030.
