  Molecular diagnosis of the prevalence of etiologic agents in children with diarrhea in the Brazilian semiarid. - Compared different methods of molecular diagnosis for the presence of DNA from bacteria, parasites and viruses in over 300 samples. Obtained a faster and more efficient diagnosis with Multiplex PCR/xMAP. - Successfully determined genetic variation of virulence genes on enteropathogenic E. coli. - Training and supervision of two exchange students.
