READy project

The READy project is being carried on by a regional scientific network of excellence for the rapid response to bio-emergencies. The project is aimed at developing new bioreagents and diagnostic kits that target emerging tropical diseases, i.e., Chagas disease, arbovirus-related diseases (Dengue, Chikungunya, Zika), malaria and schistosomiasis. For this purpose, proteins must be isolated and purified from several microorganisms, such as Trypanosoma cruzi, Plasmodium SPP, Schistosoma SPP, Dengue, Chikungunya, e Zika.
