NSF Predictive Intelligence for Pandemic Prevention (PIPP) Workshop –Ìý Pandemic Readiness for Emerging Pathogens (PREP) ÌýÌý

February 16, 17, 2021Ìý

Ìý

ÌýThe goal of the workshop is to foster scientific discussion and catalyze innovation and partnerships to significantly enhance our understanding of the challenges and potential solutions to rapid detection and assessment of emerging pathogens and infectious disease dynamics from the molecular to the ecological scale.ÌýWe invite participants from academia, government, industry, and non-governmental organizations from varied disciplines: Engineering (ENG), Biological Sciences (BIO), Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE), and Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences (SBE).ÌýÌý

PREP has four topical thrusts:ÌýÌý

1) Rapid and Accurate Detection and Assessment of Emerging Pathogens ÌýÌý

2) Monitoring Environmental Change, Animal Movements, and High-Risk Interfaces for Disease TransmissionÌý ÌýÌý

3) Monitoring Human Movements and At-risk Communities for Disease Transmission and SpreadÌý ÌýÌý

4) Data-Intensive Machine Learning and Modeling for Pandemic Preparedness. ÌýÌý

Each topical thrust has vision talks, panels and breakout sessions.ÌýTheÌý goal Ìý of the workshop is aÌý roadmap for research investments Ìýto address key technical and scientific challenges for pandemic prevention.ÌýÌý
