The journey towards the development of a malaria vaccine is bumpy. It involves understanding highly evolved parasites that can replicate while hidden… - Faith Osier

The second angle of our research aims to understand how the immune system handles the complexity of the malaria parasite. For example, if it produces antibodies, we need to identify the parasite proteins to which the antibodies are binding and the mechanisms they are using. To do this, we probe the parasite with antibodies from people who have developed resistance to malaria parasite.

As you move up it becomes harder because you’ll be distracted by dramas and sideshows, but remember that they’re not the main story.

whatever you have in your hand to do, if you give it your whole heart and all your energy, it will give you a lot of dividends.
