2. Rejected design effects

3. Agenda CDC Surveillance Strategy Innovation Projects Next Steps – Timeline Items of Interest Presentation – “Google Glass and Public Health” – Brian Norris (@geek_nurse)– SocialHealthInsights Co-Founder

4. CDC Surveillance Strategy Innovation Projects Sponsored by OPHSS to support surveillance strategy Initial budget of $250k Based on submissions, expanded to $445k to fund 9 projects Projects planned for 4-12 months

5. Communication was helpful Article in CDC Connects Announcements in CDC Today Email messaging to CDC Senior Leadership Email messaging to CDC Management Officials Presentations: SLB, IRGC, INTS, Infectious Diseases Surveillance Working Group

6. Selection Process All proposed projects required approval by supervisor, Division/Center leadership, Center Management Official, Center ADI/ADS/ADC/ADP Some centers used internal review process prior to submission Reviewed by CHIIC Advisory Group Recommendation to OPHSS Director

7. Project characteristics requested Advance innovation on a specific area related to data collection, transport, storage, analysis, visualization, or availability Improve effectiveness or efficiency of existing surveillance systems by leveraging emerging information technologies Explore and answer a distinct question and provide validated learning  if successful, provide insights or tools that can be generalized to other surveillance systems or activities; or  if unsuccessful, provide lessons learned that can be applied to future projects (i.e., failure can still be useful) Be independently valuable, but extensible (i.e., accretive)

9. 33 Project ideas submitted - $1.5M requested

10. Diverse set of project ideas, a few recurring themes Data analysis Novel visualization mHealth Synthetic Data Consumer apps EHR Data collection

11. How projects aligned to Surveillance Strategy goals Goal 1: Enhance the accountability, resource use, workforce and innovation for surveillance at CDC and in support of STLT agencies Goal 2: Accelerate the utilization of emerging tools and approaches to improve the availability, quality, and timeliness of surveillance data Goal 3: Through cross-cutting agency initiatives, improve surveillance by addressing data availability, system usability, redundancies, and incorporation of new information technologies in major systems or activities
