Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Despite the efforts and measures implemented over many years to control malaria, it is still one of the most prevalent public health concerns in the world. Several studies have been performed in recent decades to elucidate the mechanisms involved in its pathogenesis and host–parasite relationship, the discovery of novel drugs for treatment and chemoprevention, and the application of vaccines and methodology employed for vector control, among others. The results of this and future research may elucidate mechanisms that support the goals of malaria control and elimination. This Special Issue will address all research that provides new insights into the pathogenesis, novel treatments or treatment regimens, diagnostic methodologies, and control of malaria vector mosquitoes.
