Research project: Patient stratification for development of better isolation guideline

Isolation of COVID-19 has been implemented in most countries since the pandemic started. However, the isolation guideline varies between countries. Scientifically evidenced isolation guidelines are needed. In this study, we compare different isolation guidelines, using the simulator mimicking the time course change in viral load.

This project is led by Keisuke Ejima, an Assistant Professor at Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, Nanyang Technological University.
