The WHO Collaborating Centre for Reference and Research on Influenza, located at the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity in Melbourne is part of the World Health Organization Global Influenza Surveillance and Response System (GISRS). Together with the WHO Collaborating Centres in Atlanta, Beijing, London and Tokyo, we are responsible for analysing influenza viruses currently circulating in the human population in different countries around the world. This information is used by the WHO to make recommendations on appropriate viruses to be included in annual seasonal influenza vaccines for the northern and southern hemispheres. We also undertake research, training and regional capacity building activities related to influenza.
