Do you want to learn about malaria while you play hunting parasites in real blood samples? MalariaSpot is a game developed by researchers to help diagnose malaria. There are not enough specialists in the world to diagnose malaria... and you can help! We combine the results from several players to obtain an image analysis as reliable as the one made by a specialist.

The images you play with are photographies of real blood samples from patients from Mozambique and South Africa. While playing you will hunt for "Plasmodiums", the parasites responsible for malaria. The best you do it, the higher your score will be and the furthest you will advance in the game. Your goal? Find all the parasites in real blood samples from malaria patients.
