Fight
The Fight Infections Foundation is a reference entity in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases.
We carry out pioneering and independent research, committed to people and society, and based on the following principles:
HUMANISM
The patient is the origin, the engine and the sole purpose of our work.
CLINICAL RESEARCH
Research and assistance are two sides of the same coin. Biomedical research must start from the clinical needs of patients. Likewise, quality research is the main guarantee that they will receive the best treatments.
EXCELLENCE
Talent, work, creativity, scientific rigor and alliances with the main international research groups in infectious diseases are the tools of our project.
Areas of knowledge
We address the main challenges of infectious diseases from six major areas of knowledge. Each one includes several lines of action.
We want to ensure that no one becomes infected with HIV and to cure infected people. Until this is possible, we work to offer better treatments and to avoid the physical but also psycho-emotional complications of the infection.
-TreatmentsLines of action
-Vaccines
-Aging and comorbidities
-Liver pathology
-Psychology
We work to prevent Covid-19, avoid its progression to serious forms and reduce mortality. We also focus on the study of Long Covid to find its causes and identify effective treatments.
Lines of action
-Better treatments and new moleculesAcute COVID-19
-Pandemic control strategies
-Characterization of the syndromeLong COVID-19
-Clinical trials of new treatment
We focus on the study of preventive strategies that avoid new infections and we look for better treatments, investigating new drugs or using existing ones.
-SyphilisLines of action
-Human papillomavirus
-Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP)
We want to reduce complications and mortality from serious infections in patients with weakened immune systems due to cancer, organ transplants, congenital diseases or immunosuppressive drugs.
-Hemato-oncologyLines of action
-Solid organ transplant
-Primary and secondary immunodeficiencies
We fight against bacterial infections that cause high mortality and serious clinical complications. We pay special attention to germs resistant to antibiotics and to the study of infections that originate in the environment and in the animal kingdom.
-LegionellaLines of action
-Osteoarticular infections
-Infectious endocarditis
-Central nervous system infections
-Nosocomial infections
-One Health
We work to prevent, diagnose and treat infections related to globalization, both those that affect travelers or the immigrant population. We want to identify better diagnostics and treatments for neglected diseases that particularly affect low-income countries.
-Imported and emerging infectionsLines of action
-Tuberculosis
-Yaws and neglected diseases
