Biography:
After obtaining his MS in Microbiology from Mahidol University, Mr. Alok Kafle pursued doctoral research on the carcinogenic parasite Opisthorchis viverrini (Ov) at Khon Kaen University's WHO-collaborating Center, motivated by the parasite's association with high liver cancer rates in the region. Undertaking his PhD in one of the neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) in the highest incidence areas, he’s determined to find biomarker and therapeutic targets for Ov-associated cholangiocarcinoma. His research addresses major health burdens, making good impact and significant contributions despite being early in his career.
