Resumen:
shown a decline in mortalityrate leading to an increase in life expectancy and dynamic temporal patterns. Accordingly, LatinAmerica has been experiencing an epidemiological transition process, characterized by decreasingincidences of some infectious and contagious diseases, the improvement in maternal and childrensurvival parameters, and a growing number of chronic degenerative diseases. Despite this, the lifeexpectancy of adults does not yet reach that of high-income countries and the epidemiologicaltransition has been heterogeneous in the region, with some countries exhibiting favorable healthindicators resulting from better-developed economy and good public policies, while other countriessuffering from communicable diseases that relates to poverty, inadequate sanitation, close contactwith infectious vectors and deficient access to health services. Such ?neglected infectious diseases?show a substantial disease burden in Latin America and include Dengue, with increased incidencesin the last decade. Moreover, the emergence of new pathologies related to arboviruses, such as Zikaand Chikungunya, has added to the complexity of the problem and continue to be a center ofscientific discussion with regard to regional immunology.From May 14?18, 2018, the Latin American Association of Immunology (ALAI) and theMexican Society of Immunology (SMI) co-organized their XII Congress and XXIII Congress,respectively, which featured an outstanding program in basic, translational and clinicalimmunology. The complete work, including one pre-congress cytometry meeting, 10 plenarylectures, 23 symposia, 18 workshops and 484 poster presentations, was published within a FrontiersAbstract Book (https://www.frontiersin.org/books/Immuno_Mexico_2018_XII_Congress_of_the_Latin_American_Association_of_Immunology_and_XXIII_Congress_/1637). Moreover, with thesupport of the International Union of Immunology Societies (IUIS), this Research Topic waslaunched, devoted to current and in-progress scientific knowledge on basic immunopathologicalaspects of chronic infectious diseases and their control in our region.
