ASCertain
InfrastructurePilot
Systemic Problem
Many populations remain statistically invisible. Traditional surveillance systems underrepresent marginalized groups, rare conditions, and fluctuating trajectories.
Existing Landscape
Surveillance systems are often top-down, episodic, and weakly connected to lived experience.
What We Build
ASCertain is an infrastructure that enables participatory data collection; connects community-generated data with clinical sources; and supports longitudinal analysis.
Our Role
We design the participatory protocols, governance, and evaluation frameworks for ASCertain.
Evaluation Strategy
We assess inclusivity, data validity, and policy relevance.
Opportunities
We welcome collaborations with community organizations, public health agencies, and academic groups interested in participatory epidemiology.
