Join us in celebrating World Immunization Week!

Vaccines bring us closer to a safer, healthier world.

For 60 years, USAID has invested in science and technology to develop new vaccines, supported the distribution and uptake of underused vaccines, and helped strengthen routine immunization delivery platforms. COVID-19 has highlighted the challenges for ensuring equitable access to vaccines, yet these barriers to equity are not new. Over the last decade, immunization coverage has been stagnating—and even declining—in many countries, putting communities at risk of preventable infectious diseases. Through disruptions to essential health services, the pandemic has further exacerbated immunization gaps, leaving many children and communities vulnerable to serious diseases like measles and polio. To protect the lives of children and families around the world, USAID recognizes that we must look beyond a particular pathogen, focus on building strong and equitable health systems, and respond to urgent country needs in the midst of the ongoing pandemic.  This year's World Immunization Week offers an unprecedented opportunity to recommit to routine immunization and build widespread trust in the value of safe and effective vaccines. Transforming global momentum around COVID-19 vaccines into long-term support for equitable access to routine immunization and stronger health systems is key to building back a better, more resilient world.  We hope you will join us!   CELEBRATE WORLD IMMUNIZATION WEEK: Read about how USAID has supported immunizations over the past 60 years.

Click here to view in browser. Unlocking the Potential of Artificial Intelligence To Understand Health and Wellness How can people move from a less healthy state to a healthier one? This is a challenging and complex scientific question—so challenging and complex that we believe artificial intelligence (AI) may provide a way to better understand it. AI, which encompasses many methods such as modern machine learning, offers potential solutions to complex challenges in biomedical and behavioral research, including questions of great interest to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) regarding whole person health and salutogenesis—the process by which individuals move from a less healthy to a healthier state. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Common Fund Bridge to Artificial Intelligence (Bridge2AI) program will propel biomedical and behavioral research forward by setting the stage for widespread adoption of AI that tackles complex biomedical challenges beyond human intuition. By building deeper connections between the fields of data and computer science and biomedical research, we can better define, build, and leverage multidimensional datasets to answer pressing health research questions.   At the recent Integrative Medicine & Health Symposium hosted by the Academic Consortium for Integrative Medicine & Health, we hosted a session that looked at salutogenesis and the interest in exploring it through AI. At the session, NCCIH Director Dr. Helene Langevin discussed "The Potential of Using Artificial Intelligence To Solve the Puzzle of Salutogenesis" and others detailed the Bridge2AI program, which NCCIH is co-leading. The video of the session is now available on YouTube. Introduction by Dr. Emmeline Edwards, director of the NCCIH Division of Extramural Research The Potential of Using Artificial Intelligence To Solve the Puzzle of Salutogenesis by Dr. Helene Langevin, NCCIH director The NIH Common Fund's Bridge to Artificial Intelligence Program by Dr. Lanay Mudd, program director in the Clinical Research in Complementary and Integrative Health Branch of the NCCIH Division of Extramural Research Question and Answer Session moderated by Dr. Jeffrey Dusek, director of research at the University Hospitals Connor Integrative Health Network; associate professor in the Department of Family Medicine and Community Health at Case Western Reserve University   Watch the full video
