ORI-Net FAQs

Frequently asked questions about the Outbreak Response Innovation-Network

  • What is ORI-Net?
    CORI is developing an Outbreak Response Innovation-Network (ORI-Net) platform that will serve to engage and enable state, territorial, local, and tribal health departments to test innovative approaches and generate evidence for the adoption of best practices of outbreak response through rigorous scientific methods.
  • Why was ORI-Net established?
    The pandemic illuminated how health departments undertook innovative approaches to enhance operational effectiveness during outbreak response as well as the need to better identify, develop, implement, and scale these innovative best practices to health departments across the US.
  • What is ORI-Net analogous to and what role does it play in improving healthcare outcomes?
    The use of rigorous scientific methods embedded within clinical trials is central to advancing medical treatments and improving healthcare outcomes – and ensuring the smooth conduct of clinical trials relies on the establishment of efficient clinical research site networks. ORI-Net will function analogous to a clinical trial network consisting of interested STLT partners that will provide a venue to generate evidence around best practices and share this information to scale these practices across a broader geographic area.
  • What are the benefits of becoming a member of ORI-Net?
    ORI-Net membership unlocks many benefits including advancing the cutting edge of public health, implementing best practices, improving concepts and design of interventions, faster contact tracing, and analytic support. All STLT Health Departments are eligible, and we are also looking for academic partners too. It's free to join!
  • Who is eligible to become a member, and does it cost anything?
    All US health departments at any level are eligible to join and it is completely free! We are also looking for academic, philanthropic, and industry partners to help bridge the gap between research and practice.
