Genomic surveillance of Plasmodium falciparum could improve monitoring of drug resistance, but implementation has been hampered due to the large and complex genome. Here, de Cesare et al. develop a flexible and cost-effective nanopore sequencing approach to detect drug resistance and diagnostic escape for P. falciparum malaria.
