b) an introduction to various parasites that cause disease in humans touching on phylogenetic relationships.
c) an introduction to Plasmodium falciparum (life cycle, genome, disease), the causative agent of malaria.
d) hands-on training using the Plasmodium genomic database (http://plasmoDB.org [3]).
