Area of Science:

  • Infectious Diseases
  • Hematology
  • Transplantation Immunology

Background:

  • Chagas' disease, caused by the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, is a significant public health concern endemic to Latin America, with an estimated 16–18 million infected individuals.
  • Immunocompromised populations, particularly bone marrow transplant (BMT) recipients, are susceptible to Chagas' disease reactivation or transfusion-transmitted infections.
  • The clinical presentation and management of Chagas' disease in the context of BMT are critical areas of study due to potential severe outcomes.
