Malaria Cell Images (Detection)

Source: Kaggle · NIH / Lister Hill National Center

About this dataset

Tens of thousands of labelled blood-smear cell images (parasitized vs. uninfected) — ideal for a first computer-vision / deep-learning challenge on a problem that matters across the continent.

Responsible use

De-identified microscopy images, no patient metadata. Models trained on this are educational, NOT a clinical diagnostic tool — state this clearly in any write-up.
