Dengue research in Vietnam

Centre for Tropical Medicine and Global Health, University of Oxford

Sophie Yacoub, Associate Professor at OUCRU, tells us about her research on dengue in Vietnam.
Dengue is a global health concern exacerbated by urbanisation and climate change. OUCRU research themes include improving patient monitoring with wearable devices and clinical decision support systems, conducting clinical trials for therapeutics, assessing climate change's impact, and studying immune responses in high-risk groups. Our goal is to enhance early prediction and treatment strategies to improve patient care and health system efficiency.
