Overview

Ana Oleaga is affiliated with the Spanish National Research Council in Spain and has a research focus spanning immunology, microbiology, and agricultural and biological sciences. Their scholarly work primarily investigates parasitology, infectious diseases, and related ecological and behavioral systems.

The researcher has contributed to multiple topics within vector-borne infectious diseases, including viral infections and vectors, vector-borne animal diseases, and parasite biology and host interactions. Other significant areas of work include insect and pesticide research as well as vaccines and immunoinformatics approaches.

Key recent publications by Ana Oleaga include:

  • "Morphological and genomic characterisation of the Schistosoma hybrid infecting humans in Europe reveals admixture between Schistosoma haematobium and Schistosoma bovis," 2021, PLoS neglected tropical diseases
  • "A proteomics informed by transcriptomics insight into the proteome of Ornithodoros erraticus adult tick saliva," 2022, Parasites & Vectors
  • "Proteomics informed by transcriptomics for a qualitative and quantitative analysis of the sialoproteome of adult Ornithodoros moubata ticks," 2021, Parasites & Vectors
  • "First molecular and functional characterisation of ferritin 2 proteins from Ornithodoros argasid ticks," 2022, Veterinary Parasitology
  • "Sialotranscriptomics of the argasid tick Ornithodoros moubata along the trophogonic cycle," 2021, PLoS neglected tropical diseases
