We were grateful to the SAB members for SiCORE-Dengue, namely Prof. Xiao Ning Xu from Imperial College London and Prof. Andrew McMichael from the University of Oxford, for their valuable time, insightful comments, and contributions.

The SAB Onsite Visit Program was full of interactive activities, including inspiring and motivating lecture sessions from both SAB members to all participants—followed by a Lab Facility tour, Research projects consultation, and a Close discussion with Dean and Deputy for Research and Innovation.

We derived several thoughtful comments and practical recommendations from the SAB members during the meeting. This information will significantly benefit our strategic research management and develop the research support mechanism.

On this occasion, the SiCORE–M team and SiCORE–Dengue would like to express our sincere appreciation to SAB members, and we enthusiastically look forward to the opportunity to welcome and learn from your expertise and experience again soon.
