Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics & Policy
The Center for Disease Dynamics, Economics & Policy (CDDEP) is a public health research organization with headquarters in Washington, D.C. and New Delhi. Its mission is "to produce independent, multidisciplinary research to advance the health and well-being of human populations in the United States and around the world."
==Overview==
CDDEP’s team of economists, epidemiologists, disease modelers, policy and risk analysts carry out research on malaria, antibiotic resistance, disease control priorities, environmental health, alcohol and tobacco, and various other diseases. Research is divided across four areas: disease dynamics and behavior, disease dynamics and information structure, delivery of new technologies for disease control, and innovative financing.〔(CDDEP Research ) Accessed 10/20/2010〕
Two key CDDEP initiatives focus on antibiotic resistance as a public health crisis. Within the United States, the Extending the Cure (ETC) project has received widespread media attention for work examining the costs of hospital acquired infections (HAIs)〔(Clinical and Economic Outcomes Attributable to Health Care–Associated Sepsis and Pneumonia )〕 and designing novel incentive-based strategies to encourage antibiotic conservation.〔(Fighting Antibiotic Resistance: Marrying New Financial Incentives To Meeting Public Health Goals )〕 ETC researchers have contributed to Roll Call,〔(Health Reform Should Tackle the Rising Threat of Hospital Infections. ) ''Roll Call'' 6/30/2009. Accessed 10/20/2010〕 the Wall Street Journal,〔(Study: Half of Infection Deaths Linked Directly to Hospital Care ) ''Wall Street Journal'' 4/2/2009. Accessed 10/20/2010〕 and the Baltimore Sun,〔(Fighting infection: Combat superbugs, other threats with multifaceted, regional approach ) ''The Baltimore Sun'' 2/24/2009. Accessed 10/20/2010〕 among others. In addition, The Global Antibiotic Resistance Partnership is developing actionable policy proposals on antibiotic resistance for five low- and middle-income countries: China, India, Kenya, South Africa, and Vietnam.〔(Global Antibiotic Resistance Partnership ) Accessed 10/20/2010〕
CDDEP staff are also well known in the field of malaria research. Senior fellows were pioneers of the global subsidy idea that became Affordable Medicines Facility-malaria (AMFm),〔(AMFm Teaching Case ) Accessed 10/20/2010〕 an innovative financing mechanism designed to expand access to the most effective treatment for malaria through the public, private and NGO sectors.〔(The Affordable Medicines Facility for Malaria (AMFm) ) ''Roll Back Malaria Partnership'' Accessed 10/20/2010〕 CDDEP has contributed to malaria elimination planning in Zanzibar, and to efforts to promote the use of multiple first-line therapies (MFTs) to slow resistance to antimalarial drugs.〔(Multiple First-line Therapies ) Accessed 10/20/2010〕
