New predictive models may transform personalized treatment of infectious disease

(Penn State) A new National Institutes of Health (NIH) High-Risk, High-Reward grant will allow Penn State's Steven Schiff and team to explore a radically changed approach to predicting, preventing and treating infectious disease at the individual level at point-of-care. This venture provides the researchers an opportunity to explore a new way of addressing critical unmet needs, especially in the developing world.
