Abstract
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 the development of severe disease. This information will identify specific biomarkers for innovative diagnostic tools for early prediction/detection of cases that will progress to complicated dengue.
