Grant Activity:
The newly-discovered splenic Plasmodium reservoir as a target to reduce global malaria burden
Purpose:
We have recently discovered that the spleen is the major reservoir for malaria parasites in natural human malaria infections. There are significant concerns that this previously-unrecognised reservoir underlies the major challenges we face to eliminate this disease. We will use the world’s only collection of spleen and blood samples from untreated human infections, to study the splenic malaria reservoir, uncover its biology and identify new ways to improve malaria elimination strategies.
