Biography
Currently, he is a researcher at the Virology Research Center (VRC), National Research Institute of Tuberculosis and Lung Diseases. VRC was established due to the importance of viral infections and an academic outlook towards virology; and also due to the appearance and prevalence of recurrent and neo-current viral agents recently seen around the globe (such as SARS, Avian Flu, etc.). My primary research goals are directed toward understanding the basis for emerging viral diseases affecting populations.
Research Interest
He was involved in researches relating to emerging infectious diseases. Along with many other scientists around the world, our research group studied how the global decline of amphibians related to increased disease prevalence among humans and wildlife. I was participating in researches of understanding the factors that drive emergence of infectious diseases in amphibians in central to understanding contagion in human and wildlife population.
