Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Ignacio Ruiz Arrondo"
- Recent research by Ignacio Ruiz Arrondo focuses on the ecological and epidemiological impacts of blood-sucking ectoparasites, identifying new species and their associated pathogens, as seen in the discovery of a new Lipoptena species in southern Spain carrying Coxiella burnetii.
- He emphasizes a 'One Health' perspective in studying zoonotic diseases, demonstrated by his work on SARS-CoV-2 in urban pigeons and the spatial risk modeling of malaria in Europe, highlighting public health concerns linked to vector presence in non-endemic regions.
- Ruiz Arrondo also advocates for integrated pest management strategies against insect vectors, like stable flies and black flies, aiming to mitigate their economic impact and associated health risks through sustainable methods rather than conventional chemical controls.
