I developed my interest in science during my undergraduate education. I am a virologist focused on the epidemiology and pathogenesis of enterovirus A71, an emerging virus that causes severe neurological disease. I lead a laboratory with research interests in epidemiology and pathogenesis of emerging viruses such as enterovirus A71, chikungunya, and respiratory viruses. With more than 20 years of research experience, I have over 80 publications, and have been involved in many research programs and grants at both national and international levels. I served as an Associate Editor of BMC Infectious Diseases and guest editor in PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases. I have multiple joint publications with collaborators from Asia, Europe, and USA. My studies have led to a better understanding of how viruses spread and infect humans.
