The MalariaGEN Resource Centre
Current members
Members of the MalariaGEN Resource Centre are based primarily within Prof. Dominic Kwiatkowski’s research groups at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute on the Wellcome Genome Campus. We’re also indebted to the many past members who’ve made important contributions to MalariaGEN.
