A novel Hindi-language app, 'EPIWATCH,' has been developed by Professor Raina MacIntyre, the head of the Biosecurity Program at the Kirby Institute. This new artificial intelligence-driven tool will serve as an early warning system for emerging epidemics. Recently launched in Canberra, it will enable Indian officials, who may not be proficient in English, to effectively utilise 'EPIWATCH' at the grassroots level for monitoring and responding to potential epidemic threats.
