MALARIA & POLYMICROBIAL INTERACTIONS
April 28-May 16, 2008 Kampala (Uganda)
The Karolinska Institutet together with BioMalPar, MR4 and
Makerere University sponsor a three-weeks cross-cutting course
designed for motivated students engaged in the understanding
of infectious diseases and their molecular interplay.
Leading experts will present recent advances in the biology, im-
munology and intervention strategy of infectious agents present
in the tropics. The course will focus on malaria, in particular Plas-
modium falciparum and its interactions with other disease-causing
microbes (M. tuberculosis, HIV etc).
