Field Work and Collaborations

Clinical Isolates

An important facet of our research is the ability to understand the significance of our laboratory findings with clinical isolates through collaborations with researchers/friends in malaria endemic regions. We conduct field studies using parasite isolates with collaborators in Goa, India, Panama, and Dakar, Senegal.
