Significant Discovery in Malaria Research to help identify the pattern by which the parasite spreads inside the human body.

The News - Researchers identify mechanism by which the malaria parasite, Plasmodium, replicates itself in human blood to spread the disease. They can now focus on how to counter this mechanism through a candidate enzyme to regulate this and prevent the disease from spreading.
The Good - Malaria remains as one of the most deadly infectious disease and any discovery in this area is always welcome. This will also help the scientists to apply this knowledge to other areas.
The Challenge - Though this is a significant discovery, more research is needed before a pattern or enzyme to counter this mechanism is discovered.
