The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the genetically-modified malaria parasite NF54/iGP3 will safely infect humans with malaria. The investigators will also determine how the parasite grows in humans, and the effect of anti-malarial drugs. Researchers will use a controlled human malaria infection (CHMI) model to infect participants with malaria to observe the development of the disease, collect malaria-infected blood, and then treat the participants to cure the malaria infection. The collected malaria-infected blood will be used to create a frozen stock of malaria parasites for use in future research.
