THIS IS AN INFORMATION RESORCE for scientists working in malaria research. It contains a wide variety of information ranging from sequences to conference news. The information is freely available to any interested parties.

Introduction
      Malaria parasites have been with us since the dawn of time. They probably originated in Africa along with mankind. Fossils of mosquitoes up to 30 million years old show that the vector for malaria was present well before Homo sapiens...
