Research on tropical diseases

Research on tropical diseases involves studying illnesses like malaria, dengue, and Zika that predominantly affect tropical regions. Scientists aim to understand how these diseases spread, how they affect the body, and develop better ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat them. This work includes investigating the biology of the pathogens, improving vaccines, and exploring innovative control strategies such as vector management. The goal is to reduce the burden of these diseases on affected communities and contribute to global health security through scientific discovery and practical solutions.
