ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

It is only in the last decade that sub-cellular resolution of red cell invasion by the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum has been possible. Here we look back on the development of methodologies that led to this possibility and the subsequent advancements made in understanding this key event in malaria disease.
