Rodent and human malaria models to investigate host-parasite interactions central for malaria pathogenesis

Salah Mecheri (PI)

During the past few years, using a murine model for experimental cerebral malaria (ECM), we pursued our investigation regarding the contribution of the allergic inflammatory response in the pathogenesis of malaria disease. Following the […]
