Grant Activity:
Fate and fidelity of T cell memory during repeated malaria infection
Purpose:
Children rarely develop immunity to malaria after a first infection, leaving them susceptible to severe disease during each subsequent infection. Although immune cells called T cells can protect against malaria, we don’t understand how well they function during re-infection. We will define the impact of re-infections on T cells in children in a malaria-endemic region as well as in experimental models. Our data may assist in devising new ways to prevent children from dying with severe malaria.
