DESCRIPTION:PhD Oral Defense of Sarah Reiling\, Institute of Parasitology\n
 Malaria is a major global health concern\, with half of the world’s popula
 tion being at risk of infection.Among the Plasmodium species that infect h
 umans\, P. falciparum causes most fatalities. Chloroquine (CQ) was the dru
 g of choice for decades and considered safe\, affordable and easy-to-use u
 ntil resistance emerged. To date\, no other antimalarial drug has been abl
 e to avoid emergence of resistance as long as chloroquine. However\, the e
 xact mechanism of CQ resistance is still not known. As resistance is start
 ing to emerge for the currently used artemisinin-based combination therapi
 es only a few years after their introduction\, it is of high importance to
  understand the mechanism of resistance to drugs such as chloroquine. CQ i
 s suggested to accumulate in the parasite’s digestive vacuole due to its w
 eak base properties\, where it unfolds its antimalarial action.\n\nEveryon
 e in the 9IÖÆ×÷³§Ãâ·Ñ community is welcome to attend a PhD oral defense. Please 
 join us in celebrating the accomplishments of our PhD candidates.
