The paper compares var gene expression in asymptomatic Plasmodium falciparum infections and clinical malaria cases during dry and wet seasons in Mali, finding fewer and lower-level var transcripts in asymptomatic carriers.

The paper identifies two human monoclonal antibodies that broadly inhibit PfEMP1's binding to EPCR, a key process in severe malaria pathogenesis.

This study tests mosaic cVLP vaccines against PfEMP1 CIDR1 domains in mice, finding comparable antibody responses to single-variant cocktails but no broad cross-reactivity.

The paper identifies PfEMP1 variants associated with severe malaria in first-time infected adults and non-severe cases using RNA-seq and var gene analysis.

Varia predicts var gene sequences and domain compositions from short sequence tags, enabling analysis of var gene expression in Plasmodium falciparum.
