Reviews

Author Information

Dr. Flor H. Pujol has made outstanding contributions in the molecular epidemiology and evolution of several viruses of great relevance in Public Health, in Venezuela and in the Latin American context. Initially studying hepatitis viruses and HIV, her group got involved in the molecular biology of SARS-CoV-2 during the pandemic, and then other emerging viruses, such as MPOX and Influenza H5N1. She is member of two Latin American academies: ACFIMAN, the Venezuelan Academy of Physical, Mathematic, and Natural Sciences, and the ACAL, the Latin American Academy of Sciences. Dr. Paniz-Mondolfi, a specialist in microbiology and tropical infectious diseases, currently serves as the Director of Molecular Microbiology at Mount Sinai Hospital and holds the position of Associate Professor at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. With roles spanning leadership in infectious disease divisions and pathology laboratories, his career is distinguished by significant contributions. His trajectory in the scientific domain has been marked by substantive contributions, significantly impacting the landscape of endemic and emerging infectious diseases.
