The 2026 NSF COMPASS Annual Meeting will bring together researchers, communicators, and collaborators from across the country at the University of Michigan for two days of connection, collaboration, and conversation focused on advancing the future of pandemic science.
The NSF COMPASS Center, a collaboration of scientists and engineers across Virginia Tech, Cornell University, the University of Michigan, Wake Forest University, Meharry Medical College, and Northern Arizona University, is seeking undergraduates from across the country to join our 2026 Summer Internship Program. Each summer, COMPASS interns bring new ideas, creativity, and energy to our interdisciplinary community. We hope you’ll consider applying to help advance the science and the workforce, needed to prepare for future pandemics.
Across three days in the beautiful Steger Center in Riva San Vitale, the PPP DA has organized the first International Workshop on Pandemic Science with collaborators from across the globe.
With close to 100 attendees, the first annual Pandemic Prediction and Prevention Destination Area symposium was filled with insightful conversation, scientific networking, and groundbreaking research!
