Joaquina Martín-Sánchez is a researcher affiliated with the University of Granada in Spain, focusing primarily on Medicine with a strong emphasis on Public Health, Environmental and Occupational Health, and Epidemiology. Their work extensively covers parasitology and insect science, addressing both human and animal health aspects.

The main themes of their research include studies on leishmaniasis, Trypanosoma species, insect pest control strategies, and leptospirosis. They also explore insect and pesticide research, as well as parasite biology and host interactions.

Frequent coauthors collaborating with Martín-Sánchez include Victoriano Corpas-López, Francisco Morillas-Márquez, Victoriano Díaz-Sáez, Manuel Morales-Yuste, and Gemma Merino-Espinosa.

Their contributions have been published mainly in the following venues:

  • Acta Tropica
  • Transboundary and Emerging Diseases
  • Animals
  • Zoonoses and Public Health
  • Veterinary Sciences

Recent research papers authored or coauthored by Martín-Sánchez include:

  • Role of wild rabbits as reservoirs of leishmaniasis in a non-epidemic Mediterranean hot spot in Spain, 2021, Acta Tropica
  • Leishmaniasis due to Leishmania infantum: Integration of human, animal and environmental data through a One Health approach, 2020, Transboundary and Emerging Diseases

Other notable papers related to the field but authored by collaborators include works on canine leishmaniasis, introduction of Leishmania tropica to urban areas, and seasonal dynamics of sand flies relevant to Leishmania transmission.

Their research combines epidemiological, environmental, and clinical data to understand zoonotic diseases, especially focusing on transmission dynamics and reservoirs in Mediterranean contexts.
