A entrevista de seleção é um dos métodos de eleição na seleção de colaboradores para uma organização (Bourdage et al., 2020). O objetivo do candidato é aumentar a sua probabilidade de ser o selecionado para a oferta de emprego a que se candidata, destacando-se dos demais que estão na mesma situação. Para isso, muitas vezes é utilizada a Gestão de Impressões com a finalidade de conseguir transparecer uma certa i...
Phylogenetics and Population Genetics provide knowledge on ecological and evolutionary processes significant to vector-borne diseases, through the analysis of spatial and temporal patterns of genetic variation in arthropod vectors and their pathogens. The Centre for Global Health and Tropical Medicine (GHTM) / Institute of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (IHMT) hosted an international Training School on “Phylogen...
Lately, regardless of considerable progress in the elimination of malaria, this disease remains a major public health problem in tropical regions, prevailing in countries with weak health systems. Increased investment in recent decades resulted in the development of new tools and solutions for the control of the parasitic disease with the greatest impact on humanity. The Centre for Global Health and Tropical Me...
Currently, Tropical Medicine emerged as both an important medical specialty and scientific discipline assuming a preponderant global dimension. Until a few years ago, several tropical pathologies, which were exclusively associated with tropical regions, have been gradually expanding to other geographic areas previously considered free of these infections. Vectorborne diseases are included among this group of in...
Efforts to control malaria may affect malaria parasite genetic variability and drug resistance, the latter of which is associated with genetic events that promote mechanisms to escape drug action. The worldwide spread of drug resistance has been a major obstacle to controlling Plasmodium falciparum malaria, and thus the study of the origin and spread of associated mutations may provide some insights into the pr...

In Plasmodium, the high level of genetic diversity and the interactions established by co-infecting parasite populations within the same host may be a source of selection on pathogen virulence and drug resistance. As different patterns have already been described in humans and mosquitoes, parasite diversity and population structure should be studied in both hosts to properly assess their effects on infection an...
