RICET

Red de Investigación Cooperativa en Enfermedades Tropicales

Duration
01/01/2013 - 31/12/2021
Coordinator
Joaquim Gascon
Funded by
Instituto de Salud Carlos III, Unión Europea. Este proyecto está cofinanciado por el Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (FEDER). “Una manera de hacer Europa”

Objetivos:

  • Apoyar al Sistema Nacional de Salud en el diagnóstico, tratamiento y control de las enfermedades tropicales, mediante la investigación traslacional de alto nivel y la formación.
  • Conseguir una sinergia entre los diferentes grupos de investigación implicados que le de un valor añadido a la investigación de cada uno de los grupos que integran la Red.

La RICET tiene como objetivo principal fortalecer la investigación traslacional en enfermedades tropicales para mejorar el conocimiento y la práctica dentro y fuera de nuestro país.

Para ello la RICET trabajará en mejorar el diagnóstico, buscar nuevas fórmulas terapéuticas, recomendar estrategias de prevención y control profundizando en el estudio de las relaciones entre el agente etiológico de la enfermedad, el huésped y, en su caso, los vectores transmisores.
