Malaria research projects:

• 2P01AI127338-06A1 NIH - Ferdig (PI), Anderson/Li (Core leaders) (01/01/24 – 12/31/28) - Harnessing experimental genetic crosses and systems genetics to probe drug resistance in malaria.
  - Role: Anderson is leader of a CORE in this PO1 application entitled “Peaks to genes: Fine mapping of QTLs and functional analysis”. This Core will perform fine mapping and CRISPR editing to identify the causative genes and mutations underlying traits of interest.
