The document discusses using open chemistry to find a cure for malaria. The author grew up in England where he studied math, physics, and chemistry, then attended university for nine years studying mathematical physics and applied mathematics. He is now a professor at Oral Roberts University where he teaches math, physics, and science fiction. As part of his research, he works with other scientists around the world measuring solubility to make anti-malarial compounds cheaply and efficiently in order to help solve the important problem of finding a cure for malaria.
