Almost 20 years have passed since the first reference genome assemblies were published
for Plasmodium falciparum, the deadliest malaria parasite, and Anopheles gambiae, the …

Abstract Purpose of Review Five years have passed since the World Health Organization
released its Global Technical Strategy for Malaria (GTS). In that time, progress against …

Abstract Background Partial resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to the artemisinin
component of artemisinin-based combination therapies, the most important malaria drugs …

Diagnosis and treatment of Plasmodium falciparum infections are required for effective
malaria control and are pre-requisites for malaria elimination efforts; hence we need to …

Artemisinin partial resistance may facilitate selection of Plasmodium falciparum resistant to
combination therapy partner drugs. We evaluated 99 P. falciparum isolates collected in 2021 …

Abstract Background In Uganda, artemether-lumefantrine is recommended for malaria
treatment and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine for chemoprevention during pregnancy, but drug …

In Africa, most rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) for falciparum malaria recognize histidine-rich
protein 2 antigen. Plasmodium falciparum parasites lacking histidine-rich protein 2 (pfhrp2) …

Zanzibar has made significant progress toward malaria elimination, but recent stagnation
requires novel approaches. We developed a highly multiplexed droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) …

Malaria results in over 600,000 deaths annually, with the highest burden of deaths in young
children living in sub-Saharan Africa. Molecular surveillance can provide important …

Host genetic factors can confer resistance against malaria, raising the question of whether
this has led to evolutionary adaptation of parasite populations. Here we searched for …
