Abstract

Disclosed herein; are novel compounds for treating apicomplexan parasite related disorders, methods for their use; cell line and non-human animal models of the dormant parasite phenotype and methods for their use in identifying new drugs to treat apicomplexan parasite related disorders, and biomarkers to identify disease due to the parasite and its response to treatment.
