Identification of molecular and cellular pathways predicting susceptibility or resistance to severe dengue fever
Principal Investigator / Affiliation Diana Hansen (Laboratory Head) / The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research flag Australia Australia
Tedjo Sasmono (Head of Dengue Research Unit) / Eijkman Institute for Molecular Biology flag Indonesia Indonesia
Kouichi Morita (Professor) / Nagasaki University flag Japan Japan
Year Adopted 2020
Research Period 3 years
General Description of the Research Project This cooperative research project aims to undertake a comprehensive immunological and molecular analysis of individuals with mild versus severe dengue fever recruited at local hospitals in Jakarta, Indonesia. The project will uncover key processes responsible for disease severity. This information will identify specific biomarkers for innovative diagnostic tools for early prediction/ detection of cases that will progress to complicated dengue.
