Malariology
Malariology is the scientific study of malaria, a serious disease caused by parasites transmitted through the bites of infected mosquitoes. This field encompasses research on the biology of the malaria parasite, its life cycle, how it spreads, and its effects on human health. Malariologists also investigate prevention methods, such as mosquito control and vaccines, and work on treatments for those affected. By understanding the disease's complexities, malariology aims to reduce malaria's impact, improve public health, and ultimately strive for eradication of the disease in endemic regions.
