For the past 15 years, a new infectious disease has been discovered nearly every year, with an outbreak reported on nearly every continent. These threats of pandemic diseases, food-borne illnesses, climate change, and global trade and transit underscore the importance of addressing the complexity of infectious diseases and public health preparedness. It requires more than collaboration.
Take a look at this interactive Ohio COVID-19 Surveillance and Screening application developed by a team of our infectious disease modelers and biostatisticians.
Through innovative alliances on campus and in the private sector, leaders in infectious diseases research help the Institute solve problems at a local, state, national and global level. Work with us to help advance discoveries and tackle the problems yet to be solved.
