About

Li-Hsin Li is a virologist whose research focuses on developing innovative tools to combat mosquito-borne flaviviruses, particularly dengue virus. Her most cited work, a 2020 study on a dengue type 2 reporter virus assay, introduced a high-content imaging-based (HCI) method using a fluorescent mCherry-expressing dengue virus (DV2/mCherry). This breakthrough enables rapid, high-throughput screening for antiviral compounds, addressing the urgent need for effective prophylaxis and treatments against a pathogen threatening nearly half the global population. With 21 citations, this paper underscores her contribution to streamlining drug discovery pipelines for dengue. Li’s work bridges molecular virology and assay development, providing a scalable platform to identify potent inhibitors. Her achievements highlight a commitment to translating fundamental virus biology into practical solutions for global health threats, making her research invaluable for students and scientists seeking to accelerate antiviral development.
