A Dose of Radiation May Help Knock Out Malaria
How are physicists helping an effort to eradicate malaria, the mosquito-borne disease that kills more than one million people every year? Scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) used their expertise in radiation science to help a young company create weakened, harmless versions of the malaria-causing parasite. These parasites, in turn, are being used to create a new type of vaccine that shows promise of being more effective than current malaria vaccines……..
