Garden City University invites you to an insightful session under its VIGYAAN 35 lecture series, featuring Dr. Susha Subash, Scientist C at the ICMR–National Institute of Virology, Bengaluru. The talk will explore the growing challenges posed by emerging and re-emerging viral diseases and the scientific strategies needed to strengthen preparedness for future outbreaks.
Emerging and re-emerging viral infections continue to pose significant challenges to global public health. Factors such as environmental changes, urbanisation, increased human–animal interactions, international travel, and evolving viral characteristics can influence the emergence and spread of infectious diseases. Understanding these threats is essential for developing effective surveillance systems, strengthening diagnostic capabilities, and improving outbreak response.
In this session, Dr. Susha Subash will discuss the scientific and public health dimensions of viral diseases, highlighting the challenges associated with their detection, monitoring, and control. The talk will also offer insights into the importance of virological research, disease surveillance, preparedness planning, and interdisciplinary collaboration in responding to future infectious disease threats.
Join us for an engaging scientific discussion on understanding viral threats, strengthening preparedness, and shaping a more resilient public health future.
