Understanding the stages

1. Initial infection: infection of humans, incubation period, and re-crudecence of infection

  • Biology of the trohozoite stage

3. Schizonts: asexual replication in blood, morphological variabilty, intermittent fevers

  • Biology of the gametocyte

5. Re-infection of the mosquito: the mosquito stage, stored samples and exflagellation

  • The host response to malaria
