Research in clinical microbiology and antibiotic resistance

  1. Molecular mechanisms implicated in antibiotic resistance:
    • Molecular characterization of microorganisms causing invasive infection.
    • Study and tracing of multirresistant bacteria nosocomial outbreaks in the HUAV.
  2. Epidemiology and active surveillance of infectious diseases:
    • Active surveillance of respiratory viruses and other emergent infectious diseases.
    • Study of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in our area.
    • Pathological role of intestinal protozoa in children.
