Tropical Medicine

Tropical medicine is a key component of global health, but it is focused on the particular tropical infections which occur in resource poor settings, with an emphasis on the pathogens, their vectors, how they are transmitted (epidemiology), treatment and prevention, and how to develop new control measures to combat tropical diseases, including new drugs, insecticides, diagnostics, and vaccines. Tropical medicine is the science of tropical diseases and a group of neglected tropical diseases such as hookworm infection, schistosomiasis, river blindness, elephantiasis, trachoma, Chagas disease, Buruli ulcer, and leishmaniasis, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria.
