Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Mapping the Intellectual Landscape of Malaria Drug Repurposing: A Systematic Analysis of the 51 Most Cited Studies offers a comprehensive exploration of one of the most promising strategies in modern antimalarial drug discovery-drug repurposing. By systematically examining the 51 most influential publications in the field, this book uncovers the evolution of scientific thought, identifies landmark discoveries, maps global research collaborations, and highlights emerging trends that are shaping the future of malaria therapeutics. Rather than focusing solely on individual drug candidates, the book provides readers with a panoramic view of the intellectual foundations driving malaria drug repurposing research. It discusses the major contributors, institutions, countries, research themes, methodological approaches, and citation networks that have defined this rapidly evolving field. Written for researchers, postgraduate students, clinicians, public health professionals, policymakers, and pharmaceutical scientists, the book serves as both a scholarly reference and a strategic guide for future research. It bridges bibliometric science with biomedical innovation, demonstrating how evidence synthesis can accelerate the discovery of effective, affordable, and sustainable treatments against one of the world's most persistent infectious diseases. As malaria continues to challenge global health, particularly in low- and middle-income countries, this work provides timely insights that will inform research priorities, foster interdisciplinary collaboration, and inspire innovative approaches to combating malaria through drug repurposing.
