Largest genome-wide study of parasite provides clearest picture yet of genetic changes driving artemisinin resistance artemisinin-genetics-resistance. Hinxton, Cambridge, UK, 19 January 2015 – The largest genome-wide association study to date of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum unveils a complex genetic architecture that enables the parasite to develop resistance to our most effective antimalarial drug, artemisinin.
Emerging infections
Asia has long been the source of infectious diseases that have escalated into epidemics or pandemics, notably SARS-CoV-2 and influenza. As new pandemic threats continue to arise, research at MORU focuses on genomic and immunological surveillance of emerging infections, the development and evaluation of new methods of assessing therapeutics, and their large-scale assessment in order to inform policies and practices.
