Biography:
Dr. Wanwisa graduated her joint PhD in Immunology from Mahidol University (Thailand) and University of Oxford. After completing her PhD, Dr. Wanwisa accepted a position as research fellow at Imperial College London before returning to University of Oxford. Her research primarily focuses on T cell and antibody responses to flaviviruses, particularly dengue and Zika to inform the next generation vaccine design as well as to understanding the pathogenesis of severe dengue disease. Over the past year when COVID-19 emerged, she has pivoted her research to SARS-CoV-2 and diverted her skills and knowledge to study immune responses against SARS-CoV-2. She is recently appointed as a research lecturer at Mahidol University, Thailand. Her current research focuses on the immune responses to other emerging diseases such as tuberculosis.
