Public Health Preparedness and Response Science, Research, and Practice

 

The overall goal of this program is to conduct research and related public health preparedness and response (PHPR) program activities to build the scientific evidence base for public health preparedness, response, and recovery (PHPRR). Scientific research that addresses PHPR program priorities supports agency efforts to improve and enhance the nations health security. This program is intended to support this research, dissemination of research findings and products, translation of new science-based evidence to practice in the public health preparedness and response system, and the evaluation of effective application of science for improved practice as well as other programs, projects, or activities to advance preparedness science.
