The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is one of the major operation components of the Department of Health and Human Services. CDC works to protect America from health, safety and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S. Whether diseases start at home or abroad, are chronic or acute, curable or preventable, human error or deliberate attack, CDC fights disease and supports communities and citizens to do the same.
The Rapid Response Research and Surveillance Branch (R3SB) supports state, local, tribal, and territorial health departments (STLT) to build and sustain infectious disease surveillance and response capacity by collaborating with public health partners to translate science into action and equitably meet the diverse needs of all communities. The Wastewater Epidemiology, Investigations, Special Projects, Evaluation and Modeling Team applies innovative approaches to lead wastewater epidemiology, modeling and evaluation, and rapid response readiness to inform policymakers, engage the public, and support STLT jurisdictions to prepare for and respond to public health threats.
