Infectious diseases research at the division Julius Center is primarily centered on the prevention, diagnosis and prognosis of respiratory tract infections. In addition to this, there is a focus on (cost) efficacy of vaccination strategies and mathematical modeling of infectious diseases. A growing number of projects focuses on the effects of nosocomial infections and the transmission of antibiotic-resistant bacteria on patient outcome.

Infectious diseases research at the division Julius Center is centered around four topics:
• Prevention, diagnosis and prognosis of respiratory tract infections
• Efficacy (and cost-effectiveness) of vaccination strategies
• Mathematical modeling of infectious diseases
• The effects of nosocomial infections and transmission of antibiotic-resistant bacteria on patient outcome
