Research interests
Vaccine Development: Live Attenuated Vaccines: These vaccines use a weakened form of the pathogen to stimulate immunity. Research explores how to balance efficacy and safety, ensuring the pathogen does not revert to a virulent form. Inactivated Vaccines: These are made from killed pathogens. They are often used in combination with adjuvants to enhance the immune response. Research focuses on improving adjuvant formulations and inactivation methods. Research targets a wide range of pathogens, including bacterial, viral, fungal, and parasitic diseases. For example: Bacterial diseases: such as Streptococcus, Vibrio, Aeromonas, Edwardsiella, and Francisella. Viral diseases: such as Koi Herpes Virus (KHV), and Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia (VHS). Parasitic diseases: such as sea lice infestations, where vaccine development is more challenging but ongoing.
