This is the first book to collect and summarize in one publication the efforts to use kinases or phosphatases for drug development against parasite infections.
The editors and contributors comprise the Who is Who in the field, and they are comprehensive in covering every aspect of the topic, from basic research findings to translational approaches in drug development
The result will be welcomed by everyone in academia and industry participating in the global effort to finally combat the major diseases caused by eukaryotic parasites. This is volume one of a two-volume treatise, the second being exclusively dedicated to efforts to combat malaria using the same approach.

Christian Doerig obtained his PhD in molecular virology at the Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research in Lausanne, Switzerland. After a post-doctoral training on herpes simplex virus in the USA, he turned his attention to malaria and pioneered the study of protein phosphorylation in Plasmodium. He is Directeur de Recherches at the French biomedical research agency Inserm and established the first Inserm units in the UK at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Molecular Parasitology, University of Glasgow and subsequently in Switzerland at the Inserm-EPFL joint laboratory, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne. In 2011, he joined Monash University in Melbourne, AUS, as Head of the Department of Microbiology, focusing on kinomics, cell proliferation, and development of malaria parasites.
Gerald Spath studied biology at the Johannes Gutenberg University, Mainz, Germany. He carried out his PhD thesis at the Institut Pasteur and joined Washington University Medical School in Saint Louis, USA, to carry out his post-doctoral training on the analysis of Leishmania virulence genes. He obtained his first faculty appointment in 2001 at the NYU Medical School, New York,USA, and created his research unit in 2005 at the Institut Pasteur in Paris, France, where he applies phospho-proteomics approaches to define Leishmania-specific signaling pathways as novel drug targets. Gerald Spath is currently Associate Professor at the Institut Pasteur, where he coordinates the Leishmania research of the Institut Pasteur International Network.
Martin Wiese studied biology, microbiology, biochemistry and parasitology at the Universities of Karlsruhe and Tubingen, Germany. He obtained his PhD for his studies on Leishmania at the Max-Planck Institute for Biology, laying the foundation for his studies on mitogen-activated protein kinases of Leishmania. In 2001 he became independent research group leader at the
