+66 (0) 2354-9100-4, +66 (0) 2306-9100-9 ext. 2045

Background

Dr. Chonlatip Pipattanaboon carries out research at the Center of Excellence for Antibody Research (CEAR). Her research focuses on the use of monoclonal antibodies in dengue virus research. She has a particular interest in antibody production, characterization, and engineering against the dengue virus and Flaviviruses in general. In addition to her work with CEAR, Dr. Chonlatip also collaborates closely with the research group at Research Institute for Microbial Diseases (RIMD) and the BIKEN Endowed Centre for Vaccine Development, Osaka University, Japan.

Research

Dr. Chonlatip Pipattanaboon is involved in a number of research projects. The Faculty of Tropical Medicine is funding her work in epitope mapping of neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies against dengue virus using escape mutant strategy. Another project, funded by the National Research Council of Thailand, involves development of human monoclonal antibodies against dengue infection by reducing antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) reactivity. A third project, funded by the Thailand Research Fund involves engineering the Fc region of cross-neutralizing human IgG antibodies against dengue virus.

Her work has led to numerous awards, including the Gold Medal Award, 2014 TAIPEI INT’L INVENTION SHOW & TECHNOMART, Taipei, Taiwan; the 2014 Honor of Invention, from the World Invention Intellectual Property Association (WIIPA); the 2014 Leading Innovation Award, from the International Intellectual Property Forum (IIPF); the 2014; the 2014 Excellent Invention Award, from the International Intellectual Property Industry Association (TIIIA); and the Outstanding Research Award in Medical Sciences in 2013 from the National Research Council of Thailand (NRCT). In addition, Dr. Chonlatip shares a patent for an antigenic peptide derived from dengue virus.
