<i>P. falciparum</i> Invasion and Erythrocyte Aging
<i>Plasmodium</i> parasites need to find red blood cells (RBCs) that, on the one hand, expose receptors for the pathogen ligands and, on the other hand, maintain the right geometry to facilitate merozoite attachment and entry into the red blood cell. Both characteristics change with the...
