Jesus Lamas Fernandez

Jesus Lamas Fernandez is a Professor in the Department of Functional Biology at the Faculty of Biology, University of Santiago de Compostela. He is affiliated with the Institute for Aquatic Research for Global Health (iARCUS) and is a member of the PARAQUASIL Interdisciplinary Research Group, which focuses on pharmaceutical technology, parasitic immunobiology, and water parasitosis.

His research is centered on cell biology and aquatic health, with a strong emphasis on fish immunology and the histopathological effects of bacterial pathogens such as Vibrio anguillarum. His work bridges environmental science, parasitology, and biomedicine, particularly in the context of global health and waterborne diseases.

He earned his doctorate from the University of Santiago de Compostela in 1991 with a thesis on the experimental alterations caused by Vibrio anguillarum in rainbow trout, analyzing cytological and histopathological aspects. His academic career reflects a long-standing commitment to understanding host-pathogen interactions in aquatic organisms.

No recent publications or specific research outputs were listed in the provided text, but his research group's focus suggests ongoing interdisciplinary work in parasitology and aquatic disease control.
