- This $600,000 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program aims to enhance influenza forecasting through an integrated platform for user-generated temporal forecasts. The project takes a participatory modeling approach to guide the construction of a human judgment platform that generates temporal forecasts of infectious disease trajectories. The key goals are to: 1) identify the factors and decision-making...
- This federal Project Grant award of $333,000.00, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program, supports the development of PANAX - a new computational system to improve the planning, preparedness, and response to evolving epidemics. The goal is to leverage existing data and models to create more adaptable, accurate, and reliable epidemic forecasting and management tools based on real-time conditions. This 18-month project,...
- This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) provides $150,000 to the University of Illinois to develop proactive solutions for public health protection against airborne diseases. The key objectives are: Create an intelligent, automated system for real-time, multiplex monitoring of critical airborne pathogens, including the ability to obtain time-resolved measurements of infectious aerosols...
- The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD), through its Minority Health and Health Disparities Research program (CFDA 93.307), awarded Innovative Design Labs Inc. a $1,022,341 project grant to develop a comprehensive modular simulator for venipuncture, peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC), and injection training. The project, with a performance period from September 2025 to May 2027, aims to create a simulator that accurately represents the diversity of patients...
- This Project Grant award, totaling $410,000 and provided by the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), aims to develop novel phylodynamic approaches to reconstruct heterogeneous infectious disease transmission dynamics from pathogen genomic data. The research project, led by the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), seeks to address limitations in current phylodynamic methods by creating scalable...
- The National Science Foundation awarded a $1,000,000 Project Grant to the University of Chicago to support the Robust Epidemic Surveillance and Modeling (RESUME) project under the Engineering program of the Cross-Directorate Predictive Intelligence for Pandemic Prevention Phase I initiative. The grant period runs from August 1, 2022 to January 31, 2024. The RESUME project will develop predictive modeling capabilities and open data platforms to inform pandemic response decision making. An...
- This Project Grant award of $296,519 was provided by the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD), under the Minority Health and Health Disparities Research (CFDA 93.307) federal grant program, to MHealth Systems, Inc. The funding will support the development and testing of the MIREA (Motivational Intervention in Real-time Ecological Application) smartphone app. This app is designed to provide a primary prevention approach for addressing heavy episodic drinking and...
- This federal Project Grant award of $360,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Mathematical Sciences and the CDC Coronavirus and Other Respiratory Viruses Division aims to improve policymaking processes for mitigating the transmission of respiratory pathogens, such as during the COVID-19 pandemic. The principal investigators will develop and study game theoretical mathematical models, simulation tools, and numerical approaches that can be adapted to specific public...
This Project Grant award, in the amount of $477,000.00, was provided by the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) under the Minority Health and Health Disparities Research program (CFDA 93.307). The funding will support the development of an "Interactive Outbreak Simulator: A Robust and Customizable Platform for Socio-Epidemiological Insights" at the University of Texas at Austin. The key objectives of this project are to create a platform for modeling disease transmission during outbreaks and deploy it to research laboratories and public health settings across the United States. This will involve transforming and re-architecting the front and back ends of the platform, adding the ability to model all US states at various scales, and integrating new data sources such as the Social Vulnerability Index. The project aims to provide critical insights into how diseases spread through different population segments and the effects of intervention strategies, ultimately giving researchers and public health experts better tools for real-time decision making and forecasting when data is limited. The project period runs from August 1, 2025 to July 31, 2027.
