I am a Bacteriologist with Master’s Degree in biology focused on the study of microorganisms of public health importance. I obtained my Ph.D. in biological sciences at Andes University in Colombia. I have co-authored over 30 international publications on bacteria and zoonosis As part of my doctoral dissertation I studied Rickettsias as etiological agents of febrile illness in Colombia, and some of my training in that particular area was conducted at the University of Texas Medical Branch. My main interest is focused on different aspects of microbiology such as clinical diagnosis (conventional and molecular diagnosis), and epidemiology of infectious diseases. After obtaining my Ph.D. degree I began to study the ecology of arthropod-borne diseases in endemic areas of Colombia. Within my research as leading researcher I focused mainly on the following two aspects: 1. Assessing the current state of murine typhus in a specific department of Colombia 2. Studying the ecology of ticks as vectors of Rickettsia. Importantly, my approach is based on interdisciplinary studies, including biologists, microbiologists, engineers, ecologists, epidemiologists.
