Scientists in Fogarty's Division of International Epidemiology and Population Studies conduct original research in epidemiology and mathematical modeling of diseases, genomic evolution of pathogens, implementation science, and population studies. 

Their work includes developing modeling techniques to enhance preparedness and improve response to pandemics and emerging health threats, all of which directly benefits the health and safety of Americans, explains David J. Spiro, PhD, the division's director. They often use NIH's supercomputer, Biowulf, to collect and analyze data and construct models. “Fogarty researchers tackle a broad spectrum of global health challenges, from advancing influenza forecasting and HIV genomic surveillance to exploring innovative solutions for air pollution impacts, underscoring their pivotal role in addressing both domestic and international health issues," says Spiro.
