Revealing potential! Massive screening efforts recently reported by two groups have identified a large number of hit and lead compounds, such as SJ000025081 (shown), against cultured malaria parasites. With the results of both screens available to the public, hopes are high that clinical candidates will be identified, ultimately leading to novel antimalarial drugs.
