Paula Lado's research focuses on vector-borne diseases, particularly ticks and mosquitoes, and tools for controlling the insects and mites that spread pathogens to humans and animals. Recent work spans tick species identification and genetics, mosquito and insect trapping devices, and the use of ivermectin (an anti-parasitic drug) for malaria and pest control. The work often combines laboratory, field, and clinical trial approaches to disease prevention.
