Although severe #malaria presents in different clinical forms – such as cerebral malaria or severe malarial anemia – a new study reveals that all severe cases have one thing in common: a shared inflammatory signature. publichealth.jhu.edu/malaria-resear…

This week, Jane Carlton and others from Johns Hopkins Malaria Research Institute spent time with research scientists in Ethiopia, planning expanded field research aimed at eradicating #malaria, which is responsible for more than 600K deaths each year, mostly children under 5.
