Responding to Ebola: Understanding the Bundibugyo Strain and the Current Outbreak
Wednesday, May 27, 2026, 11 a.m.-12 p.m. (ET)
Online

Join the NYU School of Global Public Health for an important discussion on the current Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Uganda, caused by the rare Bundibugyo virus.

This webinar will bring together public health experts to examine the latest developments, transmission dynamics, response efforts, and lessons learned for outbreak preparedness and prevention. The conversation will also explore the role and effectiveness of quarantine measures, travel advisories, and border restrictions, as well as the social and ethical considerations surrounding these policies.

Panelists will discuss what scientists currently know, and still do not know, about the Bundibugyo virus, including how it differs from more familiar Ebola strains, what is understood about its transmission and severity, and the ongoing uncertainties around diagnostics, vaccines, treatments, and the potential for wider regional spread. Attendees will gain insight into the broader political, health system, and community factors shaping the response and what this moment means for global health security moving forward.

This event is open to NYU faculty, staff, students, and alumni.

NYU and NYC DOT Team Up on New E-Bike Health Study

New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT) Commissioner Mike Flynn and New York University (NYU) today launched the NYC E-Bike Health Study, a first-of-its-kind research collaboration examining how electric bike (e-bike) use and cycling infrastructure shape the cardiovascular health of New Yorkers.

Research shows that e-biking produces moderate physical activity that is greater than walking or sedentary travel, yet large-scale, population-level evidence on what that means for New Yorkers’ health, and whether those benefits are available to all residents, is still limited. The NYC E-Bike Health Study, led by NYU Professor Rumi Chunara, is designed to fill that gap.

Study Finds Regional Differences in Sickle Cell Disease in New York State

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common inherited blood disorder in the United States. Approximately 10 percent of people with SCD in the US live in New York State, with the majority residing in New York City.

A new study led by researchers at NYU School of Global Public Health finds that SCD care is unevenly distributed across regions in New York State. New York City has the largest proportion of hospitalizations and Long Island has the highest charges for care, but hospital stays are longer in other areas with less access to specialized care, according to the study published in JAMA Network Open.

SCD affects the body’s red blood cells. A genetic mutation, which is most prevalent among people of African descent, causes cells to become crescent-shaped. These cells block blood vessels and can lead to excruciating pain and progressive organ damage. Despite effective treatments, like the use of the medication hydroxyurea that can prevent pain crises, individuals with SCD still face frequent hospitalizations.

“A range of factors can influence care for sickle cell disease—whether people are experiencing multiple health conditions at once, whether hospitals have a dedicated sickle cell disease team with hematologists with specialized training, or have protocols in the emergency department for people who present in crisis,” said study author Emeka Iloegbu, a public health scientist who recently earned his DrPH at the NYU School of Global Public Health.
