Vandepoele Lab Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie
Virologie Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Introduction
The Institute of Tropical Medicine Antwerp (ITM) has a longstanding tradition in tropical and cosmopolitan virus research. The Unit of Virology was home to the discovery of Ebola virus in 1976 and the Simian Immunodeficiency Virus SIVcpz in 1989 as the origin of HIV-1.
The Unit of Virology, led by Prof. Kevin K. Ariƫn, is dedicated to improving the diagnosis, the understanding of the (re-)emergence and ...

Trypanosoma Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
Introduction
The Trypanosoma Unit of the Department of Biomedical Sciences performs basic and translational research on vector-borne protozoan parasites of veterinary or zoonotic importance such as African trypanosomes.
Research activities of the unit focus on African trypanosomiasis aiming to understand the molecular mechanisms and evolution of drug-resistance in animal African trypanosomes and the ...
Jordanova Lab Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie
Experimentele Immunologie Instituut voor Tropische Geneeskunde
The ITMās Experimental Immunology Unit aims at understanding the molecular interactions between the vector mosquito and the malaria parasite. Our particular focus is on the Anopheles vector innate immune system and how it is capable of regulating malaria infection and transmission. The expectation of our laboratory research is to identify and characterize genes and physiological systems linked to Anopheles ā Plasmodium ...
