We have shown that a group of enzymes called protein kinases are crucial to the survival of malaria parasites in the human blood stream. If we stop these protein kinases from working then we kill the malaria parasites
We have shown that a group of enzymes called protein kinases are crucial to the survival of malaria parasites in the human blood stream. If we stop these protein kinases from working then we kill the malaria parasites
To avoid the catastrophic effects of widespread resistance to anti-malarial treatments, we need a continued pipeline of new anti-malaria drugs. Our discovery provides one avenue towards populating such a pipeline.
We are now looking for molecules that will prevent the protein kinases from doing their job. These drugs will provide a new way of killing the malaria parasite.
Our volunteers will finish without a trace of malaria in their body
We will not only be looking at improving anti-malaria drugs and developing vaccines, but we will also be closely monitoring the immune response to measure the efficacy of these treatments
There is a strong economic case for investing in tackling HIV/AIDS, TB and malaria – we know it pays many times over, whereas doing nothing does not. A recent OECD survey of studies into the economic costs of HIV/AIDS suggests the disease slows the pace of economic growth in Sub-Saharan Africa by 2 – 4%...
I have been shifted as malaria officer only ten days ago. But I am sending fogging machines to all areas where cases are reported. Nehru Nagar zone has reported 16 positive cases
For the past 18 months, the civic body has taken all the necessary measures to ensure that malaria doesn’t become an epidemic. The figures are a clear indication that our efforts have paid off
We also call on Prime Minister Harper to urge other funders to come back to the table. There is not only a moral imperative but also a strong economic case for the continued funding of the Global Fund. Investing in tackling HIV/AIDS, TB and malaria pays many times over. Donors need to think again as, in...
Our giving is focused on going far beyond the purchase of Kammok products. We believe strongly in Holistic Development and Sustainability, not momentary giving.

The project aims at strengthening health systems in order to improve HIV/Aids, Tuberculosis, Malaria and other health services within the country
I only got to know that she was HIV positive after three months. This was after I suggested taking her to hospital for treatment following a long bout of severe malaria and cough
Thanks to these major partnerships combining public and private actors, as well as non-profit organizations, the elimination of malaria, which yesterday seemed utopian, has now become an achievable goal.
Study identifies new ways to kill the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum
Breakthrough in the battle against malaria
There's also Elena. She is a mother of six, a grandmother of two. Her husband was working six jobs, trying to earn a living. And within a week, he contracted malaria and died.
It seems perfectly realistic to us that we can now develop novel anti-malaria drugs based on the findings that we have made -- it certainly is a big moment in our fight against this terrible disease that mainly affects the world?s poorest people
We are now looking for drugs that... stop the protein kinases from working. If we find these drugs then we will have a new way of killing the malaria parasite
I am proud to be involved in a collaboration that has made such an impact on malaria research. Our study opens new avenues for researchers to look for new drugs that treat malaria.

Most of the sponsors we have today like our Tusker and others like United against Malaria would not be with us if they did not believe in the vision we have for football in the region
in the same way that we have a global fund for health, that has made enormous advances in TB, HIV Aids, vaccinations, and, of course, in polio and malaria
We are keeping a vigil on the situation and it is the viral nature of JE or AES that makes them dreaded. The main worry remains the JE, AES and cerebral malaria, all fatal form of vector-borne diseases caused from the bite Culex and Anopheles mosquitoes respectively
