Abstract

Regarded by many as the best example in falciparum malaria of an association between a specific parasite-adhesive phenotype and disease, pregnancy-associated malaria represents one of the more immediate hopes for control of malaria disease via vaccination. But, are we sure that we have identified the right candidate antigens and do we know how to measure the impact of such an intervention?
