Announcement: PATH receives funding to build new tools in the fight against malaria
PATH said it received £4 million (US$6.5 million) from the United Kingdom’s Department for International Development (DFID) to accelerate the development of a point-of-care diagnostic test to improve the management of malaria. PATH’s partnership with DFID “focuses on developing an affordable, easy-to-use G6PD diagnostic test that can be administered at the point of care to help achieve safe and effective use of medicines for radical cure of patients infected with P. vivax.”
