Director's Seminar: Unraveling the mechanisms of immunity to malaria
NIH Director's Seminar Series
Approximately 500 million cases of P. falciparum malaria occur annually among the world ’ s poorest populations, claiming the lives of nearly a million children each year in Africa alone. The development of a malaria vaccine is widely viewed as a key step toward malaria control and possibly eradication, yet current malaria vaccine candidates confer only partial, short-lived protection at best. Optimism that a highly effective malaria vaccine can be developed stems in part from the observation that humans can acquire immunity to malaria through repeated P. falciparum infections. However, the...

Evolution of Adaptive Immunity in Vertebrates
NIH Director's Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series
William E. Paul Lecture
This annual lecture, begun in 2016 and part of the Wednesday Afternoon Lecture Series, honors the legacy of Dr. William E. Paul. Dr. Paul was the leader of the NIH immunology community and his career is without parallel in the field of immunology.
The Cooper laboratory currently studies the evolution of adaptive immunity, primarily in jawless vertebrate models (lampreys and hagfish), and explores the use of lamprey monoclonal antibodies for diagnosis of infectious diseases and cancers in humans.For more information go tohttps://oir.nih.gov/wals/2019-...
