About the unit<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Tropical Area Biological Research Unit was established on June 5, 2001 for the purpose of studying the environmental factors that affect the spread of tropical diseases in Iraq. Among the most important pathogens of these diseases are germs, parasites, fungi, and filters, in addition to the animals that store them (reservoirs) and the media that transmit them (water). air, soil, and food), and its spread in different geographical regions in Iraq. In addition to conducting research and studies, issuing specialized scientific periodicals, and establishing various scientific activities in cooperation with official authorities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Many tropical diseases are spread in Iraq, caused by filters, germs, and parasites related to the geographical region of Iraq (diversity in the geography of Iraq\u2019s regions from north to south). The terrain of Iraq is different and diverse, and includes mountains, valleys, plains, deserts, and bodies of water. The spread of wild plants and animals also varies depending on the region, north and south, and this is reflected in the distribution and spread of diseases under study, such as malaria, visceral leishmaniasis, cutaneous leishmaniasis (Baghdad pimple), schistosomiasis, and intestinal diarrhea caused by germs and parasites such as cholera, hydatid cysts, and others.<\/span><\/p>\n

The best strategy to limit the spread of these diseases is to identify the mechanisms of their spread and ways to control them. The Biological Research Unit for Tropical Regions contributes effectively to preparing specialized scientific staff, directing postgraduate students, and creating a specialized scientific research center.
