Combating Malaria Through Collaboration
5.30pm talks start. 7.00pm drinks reception.
On Monday, April 25th people across the globe will take part in a wide range of activities to mark World Malaria Day. The theme for this year is ‘End Malaria for Good’. This event will showcase the breadth of malaria research that takes place across Oxford and in our overseas units. We will highlight the latest research efforts at the The Jenner Institute, MalariaGen, The Malaria Atlas Project (MAP), the Wellcome Trust Mahidol Oxford Research Unit in Bangkok (and other units in Asia), and the WorldWide Antimalarial Resistance Network (WWARN).
We will demonstrate the complexity of the malaria challenge, the latest multi-disciplinary research efforts and our efforts to support the global drive to eradicate malaria through collaboration.
