Grippenet.fr participates to the 2nd International Workshop on Participatory Surveillance, organized by the Dutch Influenzanet team and Skoll Global Threats Funds. Epidemiologists, medical doctors, computer scientists, modelers, designers got together to discuss current projects of participatory surveillance around the world, the advantages and limitations, and the possible future of such approach for surveillance and early alert.The event was particularly important because a letter of intent was signed for the cooperation among Influenzanet in Europe (which grippenet.fr is part of), HealthMap / FluNearYou in the US (Children's Hospital Boston and Skoll Global Threats), and FluTracking in Australia (Newcastle University, Hunter New England Population Health and the Hunter Medical Research Institute).
