About the consortium
The ongoing pandemic has highlighted the need for in-depth, scientific analysis based on reliable data and evidence. The vision of the project is to create the scientific basis for data and analysis-based decision making in the fields of health, disease control and ecosystems in our country. By bringing together the three areas, new synergies will be created through innovative surveillance systems, big data methods and mathematical modelling
The National Laboratory for Health Security brings together and coordinates research groups that have been working separately in the country, facilitating networking and creating a collaborative research community that is of great importance on the international scene.
The divisions of the project are epidemiology, epidemiological ecology, invasion biology and data-driven health.
