U.S. Chamber Foundation - Disease X: Are We Prepared for the Next Pandemic?
Description
What have we learned from the current pandemic to help us better prepare for the next one? And what new mechanisms are in place now that we can leverage to lessen the impact on public health and the economy?
Join us on March 17 for a discussion on Disease X, where top experts will answer these questions and more.
NIH’s Dr. Francis Collins will discuss the current state of the pandemic and how he’s worked to bring the world of academia together to build best practice for pandemics to prepare for the next one.
IAEA’s Rafael Grossi will share how their new ZODIAC project will establish a global network to help national laboratories in monitoring, surveillance, early detection and control of animal and zoonotic diseases such as COVID-19, Ebola, avian influenza and Zika, that kill about 2.7 million people every year.
In-Q-Tel’s Dr. Tara O'Toole will share her work on B.Next, focused on stimulating the defense against infectious disease epidemics by demonstrating the power of new and emerging technologies to rapidly detect and quench outbreaks.
