MalariaGEN's first paper was published in Nature on December 11th 2008. The Commentary Article A global network for investigating the genomic epidemiology of malaria explores how MalariaGEN has used a consortial approach to overcome the challenges of undertaking genome wide association studies of malaria.
The paper describes how MalariaGEN established a global research network, how the network has dealt with standardising and integrating data and how it has engaged with ethical issues. It then goes on to explore what the prospects are for the future.
