The Coordination Center for the Models of Infectious Disease Agent Study (MIDAS) program will advance infectious disease modeling science by serving as a hub for collaboration and dissemination of research products from the MIDAS investigator network. The Coordination Center will also function as the primary repository for MIDAS-related datasets, models and software. It will maintain, promote and maximize the utility and use of shared MIDAS resources. In addition, the Coordination Center will proactively develop collaborative activities and educational opportunities with the goals of enhancing the utility of MIDAS resources, advancing disease modeling science, and improving training opportunities for MIDAS network members, including graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. Limited funding will also be provided to allow the Coordination Center to conduct rigorous research on the evaluation and meta-analysis of existing modeling resources and approaches for the study of infectious disease spread and intervention.
