Dr Gail Carson is Head of ISARIC Coordinating Centre (International Severe Acute Respiratory and Emerging Infection Consortium), a network of networks established in 2011 to ensure a rapid research response to outbreaks of pandemic potential.

A wider approach, cutting across disciplines and specialities, helps limit the number of infected people and the impact on the economy.
