Week 15
Discussion
Preparedness: Role of Research
Post by Day 3, Wednesday, a brief description of how the scientific research
community supports public health preparedness. Then outline and discuss the
infrastructure associated with supporting this research. Next, describe the Public Health
Medical Countermeasures Enterprise and related activities. Then identify three federal
agencies involved in public health preparedness research, and discuss the role each
agency plays in supporting public health preparedness research.
Read a selection of your classmates’ postings and by Day 6, Saturday,
respond to your colleagues by: (a) expanding on your classmate
colleague’s posting; (b) offering an insight from having read your
classmate’s posting; (c) corroborating an idea from your own experience;
(d) concurring or disagreeing by explaining why with supporting
evidence or concepts from the readings or literature; (d) asking a probing
question.
Please see the Assignments and Descriptions menu item for discussion
board requirements.
