Motile mosquito stage malaria parasites: ready for their close‐up
Many stages of the complex Plasmodium parasite life cycle, the eukaryotic pathogen that causes malaria, are extracellular and motile. This motility is essential for life cycle progression, and two studies in this issue of EMBO Molecular Medicine (Hopp et al, 2021; Ripp et al, 2021) examine the motil...
