Nisia Trindade Lima in the International conference about the role of social sciences in the struggle against Zika. March 30, 2017, ENSP/Fiocruz Nísia has been a member of the Zika Alliance Network since 2018, a multinational and multidisciplinary research consortium made up of 54 partners worldwide.
Nísia Trindade Lima was appointed for a second term as president of Fiocruz by Brazilian Federal Government. She was reelected last November by Fiocruz employees (with 91,6% of votes) to again take charge of the institution for another four years
We congratulate Nísia Trindade Lima, the first woman president of Fiocruz, and wish her success in conducting the institution in these difficult times. She is a sociologist and joined Fiocruz as a researcher almost thirty years ago.
Nísia is leading Fiocruz in the fight against COVID19. The institution has signed an agreement for transferring technology of the vaccine developed at the University of Oxford to produce it in its facilities, at the Immunobiological Technology Institute (Bio-Manguinhos).
