A research team at ISGlobal, an institution supported by the "la Caixa" Foundation, has developed a system to induce massive sexual conversion of the P. falciparum malaria parasite in vitro. This technique, published in Science Advances, will prove instrumental to gain a deeper understanding of the sexual conversion process and design new tools to block malaria transmission.
