 Through the potential of pathogen genomes, WHO and collaborators are establishing a global network to assist in defending people from the threat of infectious diseases. The International Pathogen Surveillance Network (IPSN) will offer a platform to connect nations and areas, enhancing systems for gathering and analysing sample data, using this knowledge to influence public health decisions, and disseminating that data more widely.

Pathogen genomics examines the genetic material of viruses, bacteria, and other disease-causing agents to learn more about how contagious, lethal, and
contagious they are. With the use of this data, researchers and public health professionals can recognise and monitor diseases in order to avoid outbreaks, respond to them as part of a larger disease monitoring system, and create new medications and vaccinations.
