Article: Biosurveillance has Become an Information Technology

The COVID pandemic taught us that biosurveillance and biohazard detection have entered a new phase, transformed by big data and data analytics. In effect, biosurveillance has become an information technology (IT). Noblis’ Dr. Katharine Jennings talks about molecular-based biosurveillance and how she’s been involved in building the bridge from surveillance science to IT.
