CRESIB coordinates an international consortium to fight malaria caused by Plasmodium vivax
The CRESIB has today presented the research programme on malaria by Plasmodium vivax, a parasite causing over 70 million yearly cases of malaria in the world. view more (2007-07-18)
Sugar identified as key to malaria parasite invasion
Researchers at the Johns Hopkins Malaria Research Institute (JHMRI) have identified a sugar in mosquitoes that allows the malaria-causing parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, to attach itself to the mosquito's gut. view more (2007-09-11)
Study points to genes responsible for malaria parasite's survival in attempts to eradicate it
Malaria is a nasty and often fatal disease, which may lead to kidney failure, seizures, permanent neurological damage, coma, and death. There are four types of Plasmodium parasites that cause the disease, of which falciparum, the subject of the recent study, is the most deadly. view more (2006-06-20)
PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative announces partnership to develop novel malaria vaccine
In a move that promises to expand the types of malaria vaccine candidates in clinical development, the PATH Malaria Vaccine Initiative (MVI) today announced a new partnership with Sanaria Inc., a Maryland company, to accelerate development of a unique malaria vaccine candidate. view more (2006-12-18)
Malaria vaccine prompts victims' immune system to eliminate parasite from mosquitoes
Researchers at the National Institutes of Health have developed an experimental vaccine that could, theoretically, eliminate malaria from entire geographic regions, by eradicating the malaria parasite from an area's mosquitoes. view more (2006-12-19)
Malaria mechanism revealed
By determining the molecular structure of a protein that enables malaria parasites to invade red blood cells, researchers have uncovered valuable clues for rational antimalarial drug design and vaccine development. view more (2005-07-29)
PROMISING RESULTS FOR MALARIA VACCINE (p 1927)
Results of a study from The Gambia in this week's issue of THE LANCET provide evidence of a vaccine that could prevent malaria caused by the micro-organism Plasmodium falciparum. P. falciparum malaria remains a major cause of disease and death in many parts of the tropics, especially in sub-Saharan Africa. The development of an effective vaccine... view more... (2001-12-05)
Bug-Zapper: A dose of radiation may help knock out malaria
How are physicists helping an effort to eradicate malaria, the mosquito-borne disease that kills more than one million people every year" Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) used their expertise in radiation science to help a young company create weakened, harmless versions of the malaria-causing parasite. view more (2007-11-09)
Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine researchers have evidence a vaccine against malaria will reduce infection and disease rates
Today, researchers at the Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine's Center for Global Health & Diseases published data potentially having a strong effect on the three billion people exposed to malaria every year. view more (2007-12-21)

Tiny Tampa Bay fish key to evolution of immune system
Armed at first with nothing more than boots, a screen and a bucket, scientists studying a tiny primitive fish that makes up 70 percent of the biomass in Tampa Bay now say they have found the "missing link" marking the point in evolution that led to the development of the modern-day human immune system. view more (2006-10-05)
Can dogs smell cancer?
In a new scientific study, researchers present astonishing new evidence that man's best friend, the dog, may have the capacity to contribute to the process of early cancer detection. view more (2006-01-06)
Johns Hopkins Researchers Study Nearly 2,000 Cancer Patients and Detect Unexpected, Additional Malignancies
A team of researchers at Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions in Baltimore, Md., reports that whole-body positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) scans may help physicians identify new, unexpected malignant cancerous tumors in patients, according to an article in the May issue of the Society of Nuclear Medicine's Journal of Nuclear... view more...

Fighting cancer with aspirin?
When looking for new weapons in the war on cancer, scientists should turn to their medicine cabinets for an age-old remedy-aspirin. According to scientists at the University of Newcastle (UK), aspirin has cancer-fighting effects that extend beyond already understood Cox inhibitors. view more (2006-10-02)
