We aim to determine how malaria immunity impacts on the transmission of malaria and how immunity influences malaria control interventions.
In the fight against malaria, we're exploring antibodies that can directly inhibit host cell infection, interact with immune cells to kill and clear malaria or recruit the body’s complement system to neutralise infection.
We're developing novel solutions and high-quality evidence to inform policies and practices that address the major barriers in malaria elimination.
