Tripanossomíase ou tripanossomose é a designação geral dada a várias doenças de vertebrados causadas por protozoários parasitas do género Trypanosoma. Cerca de 500 000 pessoas em 36 países da África subsariana sofrem de tripanossomíase africana que é causada por Trypanosoma brucei gambiense ou Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense. A outra forma humana da tripanossomíase, chamada doença de Chagas, causa cerca de 21 000 mortos por ano sobretudo na América Latina.
