🔴 Live from the Global Virtual Conference on Shaping the Future of Malaria Research
Scientific Talk
Alexandra Bourgeois from Université Laval, Canada, is presenting her research at the 2026 Global Virtual Conference on Shaping the Future of Malaria Research.
Presentation Title: “Plasmodium falciparum Vps15 Interacts with PfPI3K and Is Critical for Host-Cell Cytosol Delivery to the Food Vacuole and Apicoplast Biogenesis.”
The presentation examines the role of Vps15 and its interaction with PfPI3K in Plasmodium falciparum. The research focuses on processes involved in intracellular parasite development, including host-cell cytosol delivery to the food vacuole and apicoplast biogenesis.
The study provides insights into parasite trafficking, nutrient acquisition, and apicoplast development, contributing to the understanding of Plasmodium falciparum biology and potential targets for future antimalarial drug development.
