“SCOPE OF INTEREST
Study of pathogenic microorganisms, including viruses, bacteria, yeast, and fungi, using molecular techniques.
ONGOING RESEARCH
Mosquito-borne viruses in the genus Orthoflavivirus represent a significant public health challenge in tropical and subtropical regions. In Thailand, dengue virus (DENV), Zika virus (ZIKV), and Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) remain persistently circulating, contributing to a substantial health burden. Dengue virus, is endemic, exhibiting the highest incidence and affecting individuals across all age groups. Despite extensive research, specific antiviral therapies remain unavailable. These viruses are known to modulate the host milieu to facilitate efficient replication, yet many of these molecular interactions remain poorly understood. My research aims to investigate these complex molecular mechanisms and identify new therapeutic options by screening potential antiviral compounds to combat these emerging public health problems.”
