“Margarida Correia-Neves is presently Full Professor in Immunology and Microbiology at the School of Medicine, University of Minho, Braga, Portugal, Researcher at the Health Sciences Research Institute (ICVS) from the same university and Visiting Researcher at Karolinska Instituted (KI), Stockholm, Sweden. Present research activities mainly focuses on: 1) Tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS: immune response and methods to improve the diagnosis and reduce transmission; 2) Peripheral immune profile and thymic function on chronic infections (mycobacterial and HIV); 3) One Health concept on tuberculosis (human and animal interaction). Research activities are performed mainly at the ICVS and KI with long-term collaborations with colleagues in Mozambique.
