CDC NERD Academy: Educating and Inspiring Youth to Explore Public Health

The CDC NERD Academy is an innovative and standards-based curriculum that covers basic concepts in public health and epidemiology. Student activities reference a fictional novel emerging respiratory disease (NERD) that are based on real scientific data collected during the COVID-19 pandemic. STEM educators and partners can share this educational curriculum to inspire middle and high school students, to help them make more informed public health decisions for themselves and their communities, and to open doors to public health careers.
