The profound sociodemographic and migratory changes make greater academic training necessary; At AREANDINA we take on the challenge of improving the profile of professionals in the health sector and for this, the master's degree in Epidemiology provides conceptual and technological tools that allow the analysis of evidence for decision-making on health problems, at an individual and collective level, based on of the foundations of epidemiological surveillance and research, with the aim of optimizing public policies to have a better response capacity.

Master
On-Campus
English

Infection biology focuses on host-pathogen interactions and aims to understand the mechanisms through which viruses, bacteria, fungi, or parasites colonise their hosts and cause disease. Infection biologists study molecular, cellular, metabolic, or immunological aspects of pathogen biology and infection, try to elucidate mechanisms and evolution of drug resistance and immune evasion, or investigate dynamics of transmission and infection in the field. Knowledge gained from studying these and other aspects of infection biology provides the basis for the development of novel diagnostic tools, drugs, and vaccines for improved prevention and treatment of infectious diseases.
