Time to introduce my latest paper.
TL;DR: I found potential functions for a quarter of the #malaria proteins that did not have a known function before, by analysing their #Alphafold structures. (1/7) nature.com/articles/s4159…

“Malaria is a gendered issue - it disproportionately affects girls’ and women’s health, education, and economic empowerment, directly and indirectly. Investing in women will improve malaria outcomes, and investing in malaria will improve women’s lives.”
