Basic research in the field of molecular immunology, studies
on the development and evaluation of new technologies for the design and
immunological testing of vaccine candidates, variation genetic and antigenic
analysis of plasmodium species, bioinformatics and immunoinformatics analysis
of antigens and the role of the immune system in the development of the vaccine
are being conducted in this laboratory. Improvement of expression systems,
study of different adjuvant systems, different prime/boost strategies and
creation and presentation of a cheap and efficient platform such as microalgae
in the development of oral malaria vaccine are in progress.
