The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) has announced the launch of a new public dashboard titled ‘Upcoming Scientific Outputs.’
As of September 8, 2025, this interactive dashboard enables users to search and view all major scientific outputs currently under development by the Centre.
One goal is to enhance surveillance of communicable diseases such as chikungunya and dengue.
The dashboard presents a list of the main scientific outputs planned for publication during the coming 12 months, with weekly updates to ensure near-real-time information that accurately reflects the current situation.
For each planned scientific output, the platform provides details on the output type (e.g., public health guidance, scientific manuscript, etc.), current working title, anticipated release date (by quarter), and status (in progress/completed/discontinued).
It replaces the previous static list of planned outputs that was typically published each spring.
In a media statement, ECDC Chief Scientist, Piotr Kramarz, stressed ECDC’s commitment to transparency, ‘The new searchable dashboard of ECDC’s scientific outputs will further improve our scientific transparency and credibility by ensuring that stakeholders and citizens can get a clear picture of the ECDC content in the pipeline and when key documents will be released.”
“This will reduce the risk of duplication and promote synergies between ECDC and external partners, thereby strengthening the usefulness of ECDC’s scientific work.”
The ECDC is based in Stockholm, Sweden, with a mission to identify, assess, and communicate current and emerging threats to human health posed by infectious diseases.
