El Laboratorio de Virología de la Escuela de Microbiología de la UNAH tiene más de 25 años realizando investigaciones que buscan la solución a problemas prioritarios de salud pública en el ámbito nacional y regional.
Trabajamos en investigar:
- Infecciones virales trasmitidos por artrópodos (arbovirus), como Dengue, Chikungunya y Zika.
- La epidemiologia molecular y la farmacorresistencia del VIH.
- Prevalencia de infecciones respiratorias de origen viral.
- Factores genéticos asociados a enfermedades virales, específicamente Dengue y VIH.
- Inmunogenicidad y reactogenicidaden vacunación contra COVID-19.
- Vigilancia antigénica del SARS-CoV-2 en la comunidad universitaria.
- Metodologías diagnósticas que faciliten la identificación de infecciones virales.
Líneas de Investigación:
- Arbovirus
- Virus respiratorios
- VIH
