Precision Public Health in Australia through Integrated Pathogen...
The PPHAGE multidisciplinary team will deliver a large scale integrated public health pathogen genomics research program, to demonstrate utility, cost-effectiveness, and capacity for translation of genomics into public health nationally. The program will deploy a national genomic platform (AusTrakka), for consistent analysis and reporting, and working with health departments and public health laboratories, will implement national genomics based responses to major infectious disease, focussing on respiratory and vaccine preventable diseases, foodborne diseases, sexually transmitted infections and antimicrobial resistance. Evaluation programs will determine cost-effectiveness and public health utility of PPHAGE.
