Collaborative Innovation in Action

epiENGAGE projects bring together multidisciplinary teams of researchers, software developers, and public health professionals. Together they identify critical problems, design targeted modeling approaches, build and implement these models in user-friendly software tools, rigorously test and pilot them, and ultimately scale effective solutions to cities and counties nationwide.
