Abstract

For nearly 40 years, the AFRIMS, located in Bangkok, Thailand, has been the cornerstone of many research efforts essential for the Royal Thai Army (RTA), Thailand and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). The primary focus of this joint activity has been research into the prevention of endemic infectious diseases affecting both the RTA and the U.S. deployed forces in Southeast Asia.
