Yale School of Public Health joins CDC-funded Pathogen Genomics Center of Excellence
The Massachusetts Department of Public Health has selected the Yale School of Public Health (YSPH) and six other partners to make up its new Pathogen Genomics Center of Excellence, one of five such centers recently launched by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. With $25 million in funding over five years, the center’s goal will be to improve technologies and coordinated processes for systematically monitoring infectious diseases and emerging variants, enabling the U.S. to better prevent and respond to outbreaks.
