Cochrane is delighted to announce the launch of the new Cochrane Thematic Group in Infectious Diseases.
The group brings together expertise from institutions including the Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI), the National Institute of Health of Peru (NIH Peru), and the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM), reflecting a strong and globally distributed collaboration.
Infectious diseases are one of the four priority research areas in Cochrane’s scientific strategy, reflecting urgent global health needs, from longstanding infectious disease burdens to emerging illnesses and antimicrobial resistance. This new Thematic Group will bring together cross-disciplinary expertise to identify priority topics, engage key stakeholders, and support the development and dissemination of high-quality evidence syntheses that respond to global infectious disease challenges.
