Signalling in life cycle stages of malaria parasites (MALSIG)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jul 31, 2012,

Malaria is a major public health problem in the developing world and is endemic in many regions of India. The development of novel strategies for malaria control requires a better understanding of the biology of malaria parasites. Our project aims at bringing a significant contribution to this field, through dissecting the signalling pathways that regulate essential processes in the life cycle o ...
