EIS strong

Each July, the CDC’s new class of Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) officers—its elite disease detectives—take classes and do training at Rollins. This year, 18 of the 86 members of the new EIS class are Rollins alumni. They are pictured above with Eric Pevzner 98MPH, who leads the EIS (far left), Patrick Sullivan, Charles Howard Candler Professor of Epidemiology, who teaches one of the EIS courses (2nd from far left), and Jodie Guest 92MPH 99G, professor and vice chair of epidemiology, who teaches the EIS course with Sullivan (far right).
