06 Jul Malaria Infection Screening for People Who Grew Up in Areas Where Malaria is Widespread
Malaria is a deadly disease that affects 300-500 million people every year. We hope to develop vaccines and medicines to prevent and limit malaria disease and deaths.
The Seattle Malaria Clinical Trials Center is looking for volunteers to take part in an upcoming research study focusing on malaria infection in people with no malaria symptoms.
Participants will be paid $25 per study visit.
