BACKGROUND
Dengue study group is established in 1997 focusing on dengue virus (DENV) research and other flaviviruses. This group is operated under the leadership of Prof.Soegeng Soegijanto. Dengue illness is mosquito born disease which has been widespread becoming endemic in Indonesia. Our group aims to gain understanding of dengue illness in molecular level and to develop novel approach to suppress DENV infection. Having many experiences and supported by advanced technology, our group excels in DENV identification and characterization. In addition, to study the DENV vectors, we have been working together with entomology study group.
