Estimation of the sequestered parasite load in severe malaria patients using both host and parasite markers (Publications)
The virulence of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is due, in part, to its ability to cytoadhere in deep vascular beds. Our inability to quantify the load of sequestered parasites hampers our
