Infectious Diseases Data Observatory (IDDO)
@iddonews
Pioneers in generating new research evidence from existing data since 2009 - putting equity for global researchers at the forefront.
🗺️ Fed up cleaning location data before you can map it? IDDO Statistician Rhys Peploe developed mapping tool worlddatr to standardise location data automatically - so you can spend less time cleaning data and more time analysing it youtu.be/hRnpNTKzwwY #BeatNTDs #visualisations #ToolsForResearchers
What new research questions could you answer with harmonised individual patient data? Use the data we host, for free, to further research in #InfectiousDiseases #EmergingInfections #malaria #AMR or #NTDs 👉 www.iddo.org/data-sharing #BeatNTDs
💊 Choosing the right device to detect substandard and falsified medicines isn't easy. DAFODIL helps regulators compare diagnostic devices side by side, making it easier to identify the best option for their needs. 👉 www.iddo.org/mq/science/d... @gatesfoundation.bsky.social
