Responding to Emerging Infectious Diseases

The Centers for Research in Emerging Infectious Diseases (CREID) Network is a coordinated group of emerging infectious disease research centers situated in regions around the globe where emerging and re-emerging infectious disease outbreaks are likely to occur. Multidisciplinary teams of investigators conduct pathogen/host surveillance, study pathogen transmission, pathogenesis and immunologic responses in the host, and develop reagents and diagnostic assays for improved detection for important emerging pathogens and their vectors. The CREID Network has developed a comprehensive framework and the infrastructure necessary to respond quickly and effectively to future outbreaks. The Network was established by the US National Institutes of Health in 2020 with an initial five years of funding.
