The Key to a better malaria vaccine by Prof Faith Osier

I wrote about Faith Osier when she won the 2014 royal Pfizer award,  the ‘Caine Prize’ for African science…..

She did not stop there, Faith, now a mother of 3 young children, is a professor at Heildelberg University in Germany. She continues to carry the flag for African science high.

As TED fellow 2018, she gave a talk titled ‘The key to a better malaria vaccine’.
Have a listen…..

 

How fantastic would it be if a group of African scientists developed a malaria vaccine that worked really well.  This is all very exciting and I wish Faith and her team the very best in their hunt for a successful malaria vaccine.
