The Senegalese leader said South Africa which has been tasked by a southern African regional bloc to try and resolve neighbouring Zimbabwe’s political and economic crises could not achieve the task alone.

Novel Physiological States Identified for Malaria Parasite
Newswise – Newswise (press release) – Nov 28, 2007
In a groundbreaking study published November 28 in the advance online edition of Nature an international research team has for the first time measured which of the parasite?s genes are turned on or off during actual infection in humans not in cell cultures unearthing surprising behaviors and opening a window on the most critical aspects of parasite biology. That insight springs from the genomic analysis of parasites in their natural state derived directly from patients residing in Senegal and also from the researchers? use of innovative computational approaches to interpret their results. These computational methods helped to identify three distinct biological states of the malaria parasite: an active growth-based state a starvation response and an environmental stress response presumably related to the body?s inflammatory response to the parasite. This physiological diversity was previously unknown and may help explain the widely varying course of the disease in different patients from mild flu-like illness to coma and even death. ?For the first time we have glimpsed the biology of the malaria parasite in one of its most important environments ? humans? said co-senior author Aviv Regev a core member of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and an assistant professor of biology at MIT. ?ur unique computational approach holds promise not only for understanding the malaria pathogen but likely other important microbes as well.
