Our work
As part of the University of Costa Rica, we conduct research, teaching, and social-oriented activities focused on the biology, transmission, pathogenesis, prevention, and treatment of helminth infections
The lab focuses on the research of helminths of human, veterinary and wildlife parasite, especially Angiostrongylus costaricensis, Spirocerca lupi and Toxocara canis
Part of our commitment is to attend communities vulnerable to parasitic infections in order to diagnose them and teach preventive measures in children populations
Coprological and parasitological analyses of human and companion animals are offered without any charge to those interested. More info in this section
