The National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID) works to protect people at home and around the world from emerging and zoonotic infections ranging from A to Z—anthrax to Zika.
Public Health Information by WHO
Leading research to understand, treat, and prevent infectious, immunologic, and allergic diseases
We work with our partners to develop and deliver new tools to address tropical diseases affecting neglected populations.
Information by the Infectious Disease Society of America
At the International Society for Infectious Diseases (ISID), our mission is to support health professionals, non-government organizations, and governments around the world in their work to prevent, investigate, and manage infectious disease outbreaks when they occur.
The Consortium of Universities for Global Health (CUGH) is a rapidly growing Washington, DC based organization of over 170 academic institutions and other organizations from around the world engaged in addressing global health challenges. CUGH was established in 2008 with generous funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and The Rockefeller Foundation.
The NTD Modelling Consortium acts as a point of contact to commission modelling to address the right questions. The Consortium is also a conduit for the exchange of ideas, insights and questions between modellers and their users.
The National Ebola Training and Education Center is comprised of faculty and staff from Emory University, the University of Nebraska Medical Center/Nebraska Medicine and the New York Health and Hospitals Corporation, Bellevue Hospital Center. All three of these health care institutions have safely and successfully treated patients with Ebola and have worked diligently to share their knowledge with other health care facilities and public health jurisdictions.
IDM shapes global efforts to eradicate infectious diseases and to achieve permanent improvements in the health of those most in need. By developing, using, and freely sharing computational modeling tools, we advise policymakers, promote quantitative decision-making and advance scientific methodologies.
We are a global non-profit organization driving innovation in the development and delivery of diagnostics to combat major diseases affecting the world’s poorest populations.
Infectious Disease Dynamics Centers
The Center for Communicable Disease Dynamics at Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health is at the forefront of research, public policy, outreach and education in the field of infectious disease epidemiology and modeling.
The Center for Inference and Dynamics of Infectious Diseases (CIDID) provides national and international leadership in computational, statistical, and mathematical research, education and outreach, and public health policy related to infectious diseases and interventions.
The Infectious Disease Dynamics Center studies transmission dynamics using a combination of theoretical and empirical approaches to improve global health.
CDDEP was founded with the objective of using research to support better decision-making in health policy. CDDEP researchers employ a range of expertise—including economics, epidemiology, disease modeling, risk analysis, and statistics—to conduct actionable, policy-oriented research on malaria, antibiotic resistance, disease control priorities, environmental health, alcohol and tobacco, and other global health issues.
The Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP; "SID-wrap") is a global leader in addressing public health preparedness and emerging infectious disease response.
The center encompasses expertise in such basic fields as ecology, evolution, mathematical biology and molecular biology as well as applied disciplines including epidemiology, drug development and vector control. The strength of the center is in its commitment to reaching across traditional boundaries within the sciences and also beyond, with members that stem from architecture, economics, politics, anthropology, and the social sciences.
The Center for Innovative Phage Applications and Therapeutics strives to advance phage therapy into clinical trials so that it can be rigorously evaluated and if proven efficacious, become more widely available to combat the global superbug crisis.
The Infectious Disease Dynamics group at the University of Florida comprises several faculty, post-docs, graduate and undergraduate students interested in bridging better understanding of infectious disease dynamics, field work to monitor infectious diseases, and public health responses to disease outbreaks.
