The theme for this year's World Malaria Day is: 'Accelerating the fight against malaria for a more equitable world'. On this TGIF episode, I interview/gist with my friend and malaria research partner, Oluwapelumi Afolabi on lessons learnt from our times in the lab, malaria vaccination and how they apply to creating awareness for Malaria prevention and control in commemoration of World Malaria Day.
