The Infectious Disease Dynamics group at the Charité Centre for Global Health investigates disease burden, transmission patterns and ecological interactions to design effective control strategies.
Understanding the underlying ecological and transmission dynamics is often key to the design of effective control strategies for infectious disease. The IDD lab at Charité Center for Global Health connects an interdisciplinary group of experts in mathematical modelling, statistics, clinical trials, and policy.
We work in close connection with other centres and international collaborators to increase our understanding of disease dynamics and thereby disease prevention. We also host the secretariat to Charite's IDD theme, the Berlin Infectious Disease Dynamics Expertise network (B-IDDE) and the Pneumococcal and Pneumonia INterest Group (PING)
Evaluating optimal immunisation strategies for RSV, Pneumococci, Polio, Chickungunya and many others.
Exploring advanced analytical methods and LLMs for enhanced outbreak response.
Evaluating changing disease risk and prevention strategies due to climate change and / or pathogen interaction.
