One Health Vector-Borne Diseases Hub (VBD Hub)
vbdhub.org
Are you a researcher in epidemiology, public health or vector-borne disease surveillance? The One Health Vector-Borne Diseases Hub is an open-source data platform empowering global collaboration on mosquito-, tick- and other arthropod-transmitted pathogens (e.g. Zika, Dengue, Malaria, Lyme disease). Developed by Imperial College London and maintained by domain experts, VBD Hub adheres to FAIR principles to accelerate discovery and control strategies.
Core Capabilities
By unifying disparate vector-borne disease data—from Anopheles distribution to pathogen genomics—VBD Hub fosters cross-disciplinary One Health research. Accelerate malaria modelling, dengue outbreak prediction or Lyme disease risk mapping with a single, community-driven resource.
