One major focus of the Secretariat is to set up a Resource Suite at the office of the CEID. This would feature displays of research and training activities of the Centre, a collection of publications on emerging infections, and audiovisuals for supporting projects on enhancing preparedness for infections, including syndromic surveillance. The Secretariat would continue to work on office automation, rendering information technology support to staff, and the provision of space to research staff.
Administrative support to individual research staff is also provided through the Secretariat. The latter supports the organisation of annual scientific symposiums, administers the application procedures for taught courses, and manages the systems in the enrolment of research postgraduate students in conjunction with the School of Public Health.
