PICREID

In recent years, there have been several outbreaks, such as Ebola, Zika, and most recently SARS-CoV-2 that have struck the world. We will set up research infrastructure and pipeline in countries where further outbreaks are likely to occur to study how viruses from animals and/or insects could adapt to infect humans and cause outbreaks. The study will help us to better prepare to prevent and to react faster and more efficiently to the future outbreaks.
