CDC launches open-source version of epidemiological analysis software
Colleagues,
As reported in Government Health IT...The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has released an open-source version of its software for epidemiological analysis.
CDC’s Epi Info originated as a DOS program in the 1980s, when epidemiologists sought a PC-based tool to analyze disease outbreaks. The open-source, pre-beta version, named Epi Info Community Edition, marks the beginning of a rewrite of the Epi Info tool suite in the C# programming language, according to CDC. The open source edition also aims to cultivate a wider community of developers.
CDC has made Epi Info Community Edition available via CodePlex, Microsoft’s open source project hosting Web site.
