My research focuses on vaccine development and therapeutic strategies to combat emerging viral diseases. Currently, my primary goal is to develop a vaccine against dengue fever, the most prevalent arboviral disease, which still lacks a specific treatment. The safety and efficacy of the licensed dengue vaccines are still debated due to concerns about an increased risk of vaccine-breakthrough infections. Therefore, I am committed to developing a safe and effective dengue vaccine that offers balanced and long-lasting protection against all four DENV serotypes without the risk of enhanced disease.
Additionally, my research extends to the development of a nasal COVID-19 vaccine that provides effective and broad protection against a spectrum of SARS-CoV-2 variants.
