Infectious Diseases
Advancing Global Health Solutions
Geneva’s accomplished research teams are at the forefront of developing novel therapeutics, rapid diagnostics, effective countermeasures, and life-saving treatments to combat infectious diseases, addressing urgent global health threats that directly impact military and civilian communities.
Infectious diseases are one of the most significant threats to military effectiveness, undermining both the health of service members and mission success. Research in this field is critical to creating rapid, scalable solutions for prevention, diagnosis, and treatment strategies.
-
- Infectious diseases account for a substantial number of military hospital admissions, often surpassing those from battlefield injuries.
- Future operational scenarios will face unprecedented challenges as weakened environmental disease barriers allow infectious agents to spread rapidly in dense urban populations, threatening military readiness and global security.
- Wound infections, especially in prolonged care settings, can lead to devastating outcomes, hindering recovery and diminishing the operational effectiveness of military personnel.
