The presence of malaria infection with no symptoms (asymptomatic malaria) poses a major challenge for malaria endemic countries aiming to eliminate the disease. This project will investigate how changes in malaria parasite diversity and corresponding human immune responses facilitate asymptomatic infections. The project will provide key insights into the factors influencing the prevalence asymptomatic malaria, leading to more effective approaches to control the disease.
