Main lines of research
• Development of new methods for genomic, metagenomic, epidemiological and evolutionary analysis to apply to the research on infectious diseases or dysbiotic microbiota, and also the regular study
of them, particularly in the Comunidad Valenciana. Our group research focuses on microorganisms concerning the human health, in order to propose guidelines to the health administration in relation to certain pathogens, diseases related to the microbiota alteration and outbreaks.
• The objective of the studies in genomics, metagenomics, molecular epidemiology and evolution
of organisms and / or microbial communities is their identification, sequencing and comparative
and evolutionary analysis. The specific objectives aim to identify the genetic and metabolic factors associated with pathogenesis, to determine the genes or accessory elements responsible for the virulence, for the antigenic features relevant for vaccination or for the resistance to different treatments, as well as the evaluation of transmission routes, etc.
