As part of our podcast series investigating the antimalarial drugs Tafenoquine and Mefloquine, I am thrilled to be able to speak with Professor Jane Quinn from the Charles Stuart University in Australia.

She works extensively with military veterans exposed to quinolone antimalarials, to gain a better understanding of the neuropsychiatric health conditions that can be caused by their exposure.

She also has first hand experience with Mefloquine, her husband was given the malaria drug whilst serving in the Australian army.

I’m keen to know more about what Professor Jane Quinn thinks of the FDA’s approval of Tafenoquine, and whether money is being put before ethics when it comes to the development of quinoline drugs.

Remember, you can access all of these interviews by heading to fightmalaria.uk/Tafenoquine2018.

This is Five Minutes with Professor Jane Quinn.
