Abraham Badu Tawiah from Ghana, a biochemist professor at Ohio State University and others developed paper strips that detect diseases including cancer and malaria. The paper test can be tailored to detect any disease for which the human body produces antibodies, including ovarian cancer and cancer of the large intestine.

Robert Kodingo and Hannane Ferdjani interview Mr Badu over the possibilities of when and how this new kit will start being produced to help fight malaria in Asia and Africa.
