About

Rita Macedo is the Head of the National Reference Tuberculosis Laboratory at the National Institute of Health in Portugal. Her research focuses on the genetic diversity of Mycobacterium species, particularly Mycobacterium avium complex and Mycobacterium abscessus. She has contributed to understanding tuberculosis infections in various contexts, including epidemiological studies and drug resistance. Her recent publications highlight trends and molecular characterization of nontuberculous mycobacteria and tuberculosis in the Portuguese population.
