Pradipsinh Rathod’s\u00a0research project Malaria Evolution in South Asia<\/a>, which aims to slow the spread of malaria by analyzing its genetics,\u00a0was renewed by the National Institutes of Health.<\/p>\n

The NIH\u00a0has renewed a major grant that funds a University of Washington-led research center to understand malaria in India.<\/p>\n

The initiative \u2014 Malaria Evolution in South Asia<\/em>, which was first funded in 2010 \u2014 is one of 10 NIH-supported International Centers of Excellence for Malaria Research, or ICEMRs. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases announced that it would provide $9.3 million in funds to the South Asia ICEMR over the next seven years, beginning July 1, 2017.<\/p>\n

South Asia sits in the middle of the malaria corridor that cuts from Southeast Asia to Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cIndia is a country of critical importance for understanding the spread of virulent malaria globally,\u201d said Pradipsinh K. Rathod, a UW professor of chemistry and the director of the Malaria Evolution in South Asia ICEMR. \u201cWhile most deaths caused by drug-resistant strains of malaria have occurred in Africa, most drug-resistant parasites arise first in Asia.\u201d<\/p>\n
