Gustavo Arrizabalaga studies Toxoplasma gondii, a common single-celled parasite that infects humans and animals, focusing on how it grows, exits host cells, and organizes its internal structures such as mitochondria. His group also investigates links between Toxoplasma infection and human diseases (for example, prostate enlargement) and contributes to developing new drugs against Toxoplasma and related parasites like those causing malaria.
