Anopheles-Plasmodium interactions: mosquito immune response and parasite immune evasion strategies. (360G-Wellcome-107983_B_15_Z)
Malaria parasites entering the mosquito midgut are eliminated by robust mosquito immune reactions, and only few remain to continue the transmission cycle. My principal research questions are: how mosquito immune reactions are activated on parasites and how some parasites evade these reactions. By answering these questions, I aim to gain fundamental understanding of the Anopheles-Plasmodium interactions leading to disease transmission. This knowledge could aid future translational research for th e development of malaria transmission-blocking interventions, contributing to the global effort for malaria elimination.
