What do epidemiologists do when not dealing with a global pandemic? And why do we still need qualitative research when big data and AI seem to grow ever more powerful? Come find out with us as we explore lesser-known aspects of the science behind infectious disease outbreaks, and how they are essential for keeping us safe. Because it’s not a matter of if the next pandemic will occur, but when.
Epidemic science during “peace time”
Kelly Charniga
(Postdoctoral Researcher - Pasteur Institute)
Most of us discovered what epidemiologists and modelers do during crises as their work shaped how governments worldwide responded to the COVID-19 pandemic. Now that COVID-19 (and epidemiologists) have faded from the news cycle: what is happening? Come find out how they’re preparing for future health threats and why sustaining public health funding between pandemics is crucial to protecting us from the next big outbreak.

Qualitative research: the faces behind the data
Ana Lucia Estrada Jaramillo
(Postdoctoral Researcher - Pasteur Institute)
In a world overflowing with data, where AI and predictions are at the forefront of disease prevention, why do we also need qualitative (non-numerical) research? Tonight you'll discover how qualitative research provides insights into patients' and healthcare workers' experiences. Using examples from across the globe, I will show how understanding the way in which we interact with objects and technologies can help us prevent disease in populations.
