Om oss
EU Agency The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) was established in 2005. It is an EU agency which aims to strengthen Europe's defences against infectious diseases. It is seated in Stockholm, Sweden. Our Mission: To identify, assess and communicate current and emerging threats to human health posed by communicable diseases. Further to this, the ECDC works to provide timely information to the European Commission, the Member States, Community agencies and international organisations active within the field of public health. In order to achieve this mission, ECDC works in partnership with national health protection bodies across Europe to strengthen and develop continent-wide disease surveillance and early warning systems. By working with experts throughout Europe, ECDC pools Europe's health knowledge to develop authoritative scientific opinions about the risks posed by current and emerging infectious diseases.

Time for another one of our GenEpi Bio-Train virtual trainings! This time, with the help of the Institut Pasteur, we will dive into the health risks associated with seafood products. The main focus of the session will be on understanding norovirus in shellfish, exploring the genomic and epidemiological surveillance for seafood products, examining the French REMI network for shellfish production areas surveillance, and engaging in a practical session to address outbreak scenarios. Additionally, participants will gain insights into the specific risks posed by marine pathogens (Vibrio, Hepatitis A, Phytotoxin - Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning - PSP), the challenges in quantitative microbial risk assessment, and the epidemiology and detection of parasites in seafood, with practical case studies to enhance understanding. Finally, EU surveillance systems for seafood products will be discussed focusing on risk assessment of parasites in fishery products, on the future AMR monitoring in seafood and the notifications related to seafood. Looks interesting? If you are a microbiologist, epidemiologist or a bioinformatician, enrol today and tell your colleagues!

🚀 Wrapping Up a Productive Week at the 2024 Project Review Module! 🚀 This week at Instituto Nacional de Saúde Doutor Ricardo Jorge, our EPIET, EUPHEM, PAE and MediPIET fellows sharpened their public health skills. They delivered impactful presentations, received valuable feedback, and prepared to communicate their findings on bigger stages like #ESCAIDE. 👏 A big thank you to our facilitators, lecturers, and the INSA team for your support and guidance throughout the week. Let’s continue building these essential skills to make a lasting impact in public health! #PublicHealth #Epidemiology #Microbiology #ECDC #INSA #EPIET #EUPHEM #MediPIET

New ECDC e-learning available! As part of a larger initiative to capacitate countries on preparedness emergency and response, we have launched an e-learning about “Recovery from infectious disease outbreaks: From lessons learned to lessons identified”. Recovery is a part of the preparedness cycle that is often neglected, yet, of crucial importance. In the context of infectious disease outbreaks, it is hard to visualise and describe what recovery even means, as the impact is virtually invisible except to those directly affected. During this e-learning, you will be exposed to the concept of recovery and its importance, stakeholders that may be involved, and the process of action planning, taking into consideration lessons identified during the recovery phase. Who can participate? The training is intended for public health professionals interested in the preparedness process. It consists of interactive elements, a case scenario, integrated quizzes, and an evaluation. Enrol on the ECDC's Virtual Academy page here: https://bit.ly/EVARecovery
