What the grant funds
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support development of innovative and applied mathematical models and computational tools for:Modeling the spread of pathogens in healthcare settings, for example, healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and antimicrobial resistant organisms (AROs).Predicting outbreaks of HAI pathogens and trends in the burden of antimicrobial resistant and susceptible HAIs.Assessing the effectiveness of intervention strategies. This NOFO will increase training and workforce development opportunities about applied public health modeling, including collaboration with public health partners. Models developed by HAI and ARO leaders within the Modeling Infectious Diseases in Healthcare (MInD Healthcare) network could help public health partners make informed decisions and optimize evidence-based prevention strategies to respond to evolving public health needs and emergencies in healthcare settings.
