to prevent next pandemic
About us:
Climate Amplified Diseases and Epidemics (CLIMADE):
We develop tools to predict, track and control diseases and epidemics in the most affected countries in the world. To use this data to prevent new epidemics and pandemics that can be amplified by climate change.

PORTFOLIO
our Projects
A recent systematic review found that more than half of known infectious diseases will be aggravated by climate hazards, the majority of which are vector and water borne. Although genomic surveillance has become critical in many parts of the world, very little is known about the genetic diversity of vector and water borne pathogens. In addition, ecological and epidemiological mapping of pathogens aggravated by climate is needed to identify and control outbreaks before they become epidemics and epidemics before they become pandemics.
