The melioidosis research center (MRC), Khon Kaen University had been established by our group since 2004. The main purpose of the center is to work on research and solve the problems and to train the public health personnel in our endemic area. The main objectives of research are to develop the rapid diagnosis; to study the pathogenesis and immune responses against infection and to explore the biological control to prevent the acquired infection. Our MRC published more than 80 publications with some patents.
