Strategies to Improve Malaria Diagnostics at the Point of Care by Understanding Protein Behavior and Developing Low-Resource DNA Detection Methods

Point-of-care diagnostics for malaria currently rely on antibody-based rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), but these tests are in danger of becoming obsolete as the world moves to eliminate malaria. More sensitive and robust techniques are needed to detect lower parasite loads using a more diverse array...
