New EU project uses AI to boost pandemic preparedness
-
PAIR is a new 5-year, multi-partner EU project to improve pandemic preparedness using AI and machine learning.
-
It will develop two main tools PANPOC for rapid detection of pandemic-potential viruses, and PANRISK to assess pandemic risk using multiple data sources.
-
The tools will be validated for real-world use in several European countries including Denmark, France, Italy and Spain.
-
PAIR takes a "One Health" approach, coordinating across human, animal, and environmental health.
-
The project aims to enable better-informed, faster decisions during pandemics and sustain public trust.
