Influenza Research
EPS conducts research in the fields of epidemiology and mathematical
modeling of infectious diseases. Primary concentrations include cross-national
studies of mortality patterns with special emphasis on influenza-associated
disease, vector borne and vaccine preventable diseases. The division
develops mathematical models to integrate data from various disciplines,
using methodologies that complement and extend classic approaches to
epidemiology to elucidate local and national estimates of disease burden
and its control. In addition to research, EPS develops strategic partnerships
with the categorical institutes of the NIH and other governmental and
non-governmental organizations to advance a common research agenda.
EPS has coordinated FIC joint ventures with NIAID and NIGMS in infectious-disease
modeling and has developed an initiative aimed at establishing the
utility of modeling in prediction and response to infectious agents.
