PREDICT, the surveillance and virus discovery component of the EPT program, focuses on building capacity to identify potential zoonotic viral threats at high-risk wildlife-human pathogen transmission interfaces where diseases are most likely to emerge.

The goal is to discover potentially pathogenic viruses before they emerge from animals into people, and surveillance efforts are focused on wildlife and domestic animals most likely to serve as reservoirs for emerging zoonotic viruses (such bats, rodents, and nonhuman primates), and people, at human-animal interfaces with high-risk potential for disease transmission.
