    Abstract Phenotypic screening methods have placed numerous preclinical candidates into the antimalarial drug-discovery pipeline. As more chemically validated targets become available, efforts are shifting to target-based drug discovery. Here, we briefly review some of the most attractive targets that have been identified in recent years.

    Abstract I was recently awarded the Alice and C. C. Wang Award in Molecular Parasitology for my contributions to antimalarial drug development, including laying the groundbreaking work that has led to two new molecular methods for curing malaria. This award means a great deal to me because I have spent much of my scientific career feeling like an imposter-one with the wrong sort of background and poor credentials. I am grateful for the recognition, and I am beginning to recognize that having an atypical background can be an advantage because it gives you a different perspective on a challenge. More generally, diversity in educational and cultural backgrounds is important because it can stimulate new ways of thinking and discovery.

    Abstract Malaria is a prominent vector-borne illness caused by Plasmodium parasites. Therapeutic intervention remains a critical component for disease eradication efforts but is complicated by the emergence of drug resistance. This SnapShot summarizes the human-relevant stages of the P. falciparum life cycle and describes how licensed antimalarials, clinical candidates, and newly emerging compounds target each stage to prevent, treat, or block transmission of malaria.

    Abstract To this day, malaria remains a global burden, affecting millions of people, especially those in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. The rise of drug resistance to current antimalarial treatments, including artemisinin-based combination therapies, has made discovering new small molecule compounds with novel modes of action an urgent matter. The concerted effort to construct enormous compound libraries and develop high-throughput phenotypic screening assays to find compounds effective at specifically clearing malaria-causing Plasmodium parasites at any stage of the life cycle has provided many antimalarial prospects, but does not indicate their target or mode of action. Here, we review recent advances in antimalarial drug discovery efforts, focusing on the following 'omics' approaches in mode of action studies: IVIEWGA, CETSA, metabolomic profiling.

    Abstract Although the last two decades have seen a substantial decline in malaria incidence and mortality due to the use of insecticide-treated bed nets and artemisinin combination therapy, the threat of drug resistance is a constant obstacle to sustainable malaria control. Given that patients can die quickly from this disease, public health officials and doctors need to understand whether drug resistance exists in the parasite population, as well as how prevalent it is so they can make informed decisions about treatment. As testing for drug efficacy before providing treatment to malaria patients is impractical, researchers need molecular markers of resistance that can be more readily tracked in parasite populations. To this end, much work has been done to unravel the genetic underpinnings of drug resistance in
