PandemiX Center Research Projects

Centre projects

The PandemiX Centre participates in a number of internally and externally funded research projects, and the centre's researchers participate in projects in collaboration with other research institutions in Denmark and abroad. Among the projects are:

PandemiX:?A Quantitative study of historical and contemporary pandemics

With this research project we want to construct a comprehensive theory to explain how and why emerging epidemic diseases come and go, take off or disappear, and eventually melt into the larger pool of recurrent epidemic diseases. In doing so, we aim to reveal important insights into the major diseases that shaped human society and—crucially—help to prepare for future pandemic threats: the next Disease X.

NORDEMICS:?Pathogens, Pandemics and the Development of Nordic Societies

This project aimes to create a Nordic interdisciplinary consortium dedicated to understanding how factors such as urbanization, increased trade and travel, large-scale migration, vaccines and other public health interventions, climate change and ecological degradation influence the dynamics of epidemic and pandemic infections in human populations. The consortium will systematically study historical health data to understand the patterns of spread and health impact of such diseases in the Nordic countries over the last 300 years.

The Great Leap. Multidisciplinary approaches to health inequalities, 1800-2022

To this day and age, deep-routed, structural inequalities in health have been one of the most consistent and pressing challenges society has faced. Recent events, such as the COVID19 pandemic highlight the urgent need for new research, insights and action to tackle this challenge for future generations. Embracing the COST Mission, the Great Leap takes a unique, multidisciplinary approach from a historical perspective to gain a greater understanding of the roots and drivers of health inequalities across regions and countries in Europe and beyond.

PandemiX Pathology Collections 真人线上娱乐bpage

"PandemiX Pathology Collections 真人线上娱乐bpage" is an interdisciplinary project that aims to create a central online catalog showcasing rare and diverse historical pathology specimens from various European institutions. By digitizing and preserving these invaluable collections, this project seeks to highlight their immense scientific and historical significance, ensuring that the knowledge they hold is not lost to time.
