Northeast Regional Center of Excellence in Vector Borne Diseases. Project summary/abstract Over the decades, strong training in medical entomology and vector borne disease epidemiology has waned, limiting the number of knowledgeable and well trained professionals available to respond to vector borne disease emergencies in our constantly changing world. In addition, resources and organization of basic applied research that could lead to improvements in vector surveillance and control has been limited, and public health programs have been fractious and often uncoordinated across regions. In this proposal, we outline a research and training agenda that will address these gaps and fill critical needs through the development of a highly integrative Regional Center of Excellence in Vector Borne Diseases. We will accomplish these goals across 3 Specific Aims to (1) conduct applied research to develop and validate effective vector borne disease prevention and control tools and methods necessary to anticipate and respond to disease outbreaks; (2) train a cadre of public health entomologists with the knowledge and skills required to rapidly detect, prevent and respond to vector-borne disease threats in the United States; and (3) build effective collaborations between academic communities and public health organizations at federal, state, and local levels for vector borne disease surveillance, response and prevention. Innovations for our Center include an integrated degree program, postdoctoral cross-training and needs assessment-driven workshops. In addition, our collaborative applied research efforts, decades-long surveillance efforts and biological data records, combined with new research approaches proposed herein, will enable us to address important problems in a new and unique way. We have assembled a highly accomplished and talented collaborative team of experts representing the spectrum of essential skills necessary to carry out our proposed goals for the CDC Northeast Regional Center of Excellence in Vector Borne Diseases.

东北地区媒介传播疾病卓越中心。 项目概要/摘要 几十年来，在医学昆虫学和媒介传播疾病方面的强大训练 流行病学已经减弱，限制了知识渊博和训练有素的 专业人员可对病媒传播疾病紧急情况作出反应， 不断变化的世界。此外，基本应用的资源和组织 可能导致改进病媒监测和控制的研究已经 有限的，公共卫生计划一直是易怒的，往往不协调， 地区在本提案中，我们概述了一个研究和培训议程， 这些差距，并通过发展高度一体化的 病媒传播疾病区域卓越中心。我们将实现这些目标 3个具体目标的目标是（1）进行应用研究，以开发和验证 有效的病媒传播疾病预防和控制工具和方法， 预测和应对疾病爆发;（2）培训公共卫生干部 昆虫学家的知识和技能所需的快速检测，预防和 应对美国的病媒传播疾病威胁;（3）建立有效的 学术界和公共卫生组织之间的合作. 联邦、州和地方各级的病媒传播疾病监测、应对和 预防我们中心的创新包括综合学位课程， 博士后交叉培训和需求评估驱动的讲习班。另外我们 合作应用研究工作，长达数十年的监测工作和生物 数据记录，结合本文提出的新的研究方法，将使我们能够 以一种新的、独特的方式解决重要问题。我们已经召集了一个 有成就和有才华的合作专家团队，代表了 实现我们为CDC东北部提出的目标所必需的基本技能 病媒传播疾病区域卓越中心。
