My primary research interest is global health oriented and includes delineating the role of peripheral blood cell subset populations (monocytes/macrophages) in dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) patients from Bangkok, Thailand. An aspect of this research project includes measuring mediators of vascular permeability and investigating mechanisms of endothelial cells permeability in DHF patients.
I have accumulated 13 years of global health development and laboratory-based biomedical research experience, primarily in the Asia Pacific region with the overarching goal of combating dengue, malaria and other vector-borne diseases. I now orient my career towards global health dengue research (virology) and public health issues surrounding malaria (parasite) artemisinin resistance containment and elimination in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS).
As a Fogarty Global Health Fellow for the past 15 months, I participated in a rigorously mentored research project at Mahidol University and have come to appreciate the importance for quality mentoring for successful career advancement. As such, I am committed to global health research and serving as a mentor as my academic research career continues. With the leadership of senior mentors, I currently lead the Fogarty-initiated clinical research study, ‘Potential Triggers of Severe Dengue Disease Progression’ in Bangkok and continue to work with National Malaria Control Programs in the Asia-Pacific region to advise on the advancement of their malaria control programs.
