Grant Activity:
Tools to curb drug resistance in malaria parasites
Purpose:
Drug resistance is a major challenge to controlling malaria. Resistant parasites emerge, spread geographically & eventually render our drugs useless. We have been on a treadmill of using, then losing, malaria drugs for decades. I will identify antimalarial compounds to stem the spread of drug resistance. I exploit the fact that malaria must spread via mosquitoes. I find drugs for which resistant parasites get trapped in the mosquito stopping them infecting new people & spreading resistance.
