Emperie

European management platform for emerging and re-emerging infectious disease entities

This FP7 funded project, started after the SARS epidemic, aims at establishing a powerful network capable of structural and systematic prediction, identification, modeling and surveillance of infectious diseases, health threats and pathogens. Three integrative platforms are combined: virus discovery and sequencing, technology and knowledge development and training and technology exchange. The main achievements include development of new models and discovery of new viruses.
