Información adicional

Despite progress, parasitic diseases remain a major challenge for humans. Its rapid and accurate detection, as well as the identification of specific genes related to virulence and/or resistance to treatments, is a necessity for management and planning control strategies. 

The main objective of the group is to carry out quality, competitive and innovative research, to acquire, disseminate and apply in clinical parasitology with the ultimate goal of improving and innovating in the diagnoses, therapies and control of parasitic diseases. This general objective is implemented through external projects and collaborations with different funding sources:

- Characterization of submicroscopic malaria. National Hospital Network. (FIS-ISCIII).
- Design, optimization and validation of advanced diagnostic methods for the detection of blood parasites (Retos-MICINN).
- Control of onchocerciasis in Equatorial Guinea. CNMTrop-ISCIII (Task Force, USA).
- Characterization and control of Mansonellosis and Onchocerciasis in the Amazon region in Brazil. FIOCRUZ from Amazonas, Brazil. (Cpnqt-Brazil).
- Plasmodium knowlesi and its implication as the fifth species of human malaria. MRC, Malaysia.
- Intestinal parasitosis in Egypt from Cryptosporidium (protozoan) to Capillaria (Nematode). Cairo University and Al-Azhar University, Egypt. (MHESR, AECID).
