2015-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Malaria is a major cause of childhood death in Africa and host genetic factors play a key role in determining survival from this disease. Although many candidate loci have been identified, there have been difficulties in confirming the significance of some of these loci. To some extent this might be explained by the added complexity of epistasis, or gene-gene interactions. Through this thesis I aimed: (1) to re-ap...
