Women in Malaria: Case Management

We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Malaria “Women in Malaria: Case Management” series of article collections.Women currently account for approximately 33.3% of researchers globally, indicating persistent underrepresentation in scientific and technological fields. The long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields and STEM research. However, science and gender equality are essential for sustainable development, as highlighted by UNESCO. Initiatives that specifically address these disparities are crucial for fostering diverse perspectives and accelerating scientific progress.Frontiers in Malaria is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists across the field of malaria, particularly focusing on case management.The work presented here highlights the diversity of research performed across the entire breadth of malaria research and presents advances in theory, experiment, and methodology with applications to compelling problems.Please note: to be considered for this collection, the first or last author should be a researcher who identifies as a woman.
