The National Disease Modelling Consortium (NDMC) is a unique national effort to model various diseases. Established in 2022, NDMC is anchored in the Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, and represents a group of modellers from across the country. NDMC aims to generate consolidated estimates of disease occurrence and the overall effect of vaccination in the population. Several KCDH associated faculty are part of this National Disease Modelling Consortium. KCDH PIC Prof Ganesh Ramakrishnan is a co-PI on this consortium.
