The IIM-CSIC group has focused its research on the interaction between pathogen and fish immune system, trying to understand the molecular bases associated with resistance to diseases, focusing especially on the specific immune response to viral infections. Thanks to the interactions carried out after the realization of both projects, the multiple interactions that other aspects such as nutrition or circadian rhythms have in the resistance to infections have been verified.
