Abstract We investigated numerically the mechanism of margination of Plasmodium falciparum malaria-infected red blood cells ( Pf -IRBCs) in micro-scale blood flow. Our model illustrates that continuous hydrodynamic interaction between a Pf -IRBC in the trophozoite stage ( Pf -T-IRBC) and healthy red blood cells (HRBCs) results in the margination of...
