Abstract
Malaria research is undertaken chiefly in two ways: (1) the study of the infection in man or in animal models; and (2) the study of the different species which occur in mammals, birds and reptiles, as a general problem of zoology and parasitology. This Symposium largely concerns the first objective, but we can learn a lot from the second.
