Centre for Infectious Disease Research
Infections pose a considerable threat to human health. New pathogens are constantly discovered, well-known microbes continue to cause problems by changes in transmission, pathogenesis and development of resistance to antimicrobial drugs. This is linked to a lack of clinically relevant diagnostics, effective treatment options and protective vaccines
The Centre for Infectious Disease Research (CID) will cover biologically relevant infectious disease research with a focus on
- Antimicrobial resistance and drug development
- Diagnostics
- Epidemiology and transmission
- Pathogenesis
