Press Release: DengueAI: New Model That Anticipates Outbreaks With 93% Effectiveness and Three Weeks’ Advance Notice
The City of Santiago de Cali, Universidad Icesi, and The Rockefeller Foundation today signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) aimed at reducing the incidence of dengue in the city and strengthening preparedness and response capacities for future epidemics. This collaboration grows out of The Rockefeller Foundation’s support for public health work and seeks to protect public health and advance sustainable solutions to one of the most significant public health challenges in both the department of Valle del Cauca and Colombia more broadly. The initiative, known as Dengue.AI (Dengue.IA in Spanish), brings together scientific expertise, technological development, and innovation through a cooperative model that integrates philanthropy, academia, and the public sector.
