Posted: 9/21/2022 (Funding)
The National Science Foundation has published nearly $26 million dollars in new awards supporting interdisciplinary investigations and collaborations aimed at predicting and preventing the next infectious disease outbreak. These new projects span the entire lifetime of pandemic response including supporting data collection and analysis, creation of new sensors and predictive capabilities, methods for understanding impact and spread, processes to increase our ability to anticipate the role of human behavior and information sharing, and development of mitigation strategies and policy recommendations. Awards are available through the Predictive Intelligence for Pandemic Prevention program (PIPP).
