Epidemiology & Surveillance - locally, regionally, globally

AID researchers contribute to local, regional and global understanding of infectious disease threats, working hand-in-hand with affected communities.

  • Outbreaks, WHO pathogens of concern, and AMR distribution and spread
     
  • Neglected tropical and emerging infectious diseases
     
  • Clinical, molecular, spatial, and eco epidemiology
     
  • Field surveys and surveillance

Impact: 

  • Molecular tracking of outbreaks to adapt diagnostic and clinical decision making
     
  • Disease surveillance and monitoring for management and eradication of neglected and preventable diseases in low/middle income regions
     
  • Map and track outbreaks and emerging pathogens in Australia
     
  • Map global trajectories and dynamics of antimicrobial resistance to inform policy and practice
     
  • Modelling of complex disease transmission routes
