Resumen

La 15ª Reunión Bienal sobre Biología del Toxoplasma y la Toxoplasmosis se celebró entre el 19 y el 22 de junio de 2019 en Colombia. El Comité Científico de este evento (Figura 1) organizó un programa que reunió a expertos de todo el mundo discutiendo los nuevos avances del conocimiento sobre los protozoos y la infección causada por ellos. Se abordaron numerosos temas, incluyendo no solo los mecanismos básicos de la biología de los parásitos, sino también la respuesta inmunitaria, las herramientas de diagnóstico, el desarrollo de nuevas terapias y los aspectos de salud pública de la infección por T. gondii. Once artículos y 118 autores forman parte de este tema de investigación especial publicado en Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, que ofrece una visión integral de los trabajos relevantes presentados durante la conferencia mundial. En este Editorial, comentaremos brevemente los principales aspectos abordados para estos trabajos y cómo mejoran nuestro conocimiento actual sobre esta importante infección zoonótica.
