ECDC Competent Bodies are institutions or scientific bodies providing independent scientific and technical advice or capacity for action in the field of the prevention and control of human disease.They have been designated by the Member States governments and their list has been compiled by the ECDC Management Board in December 2007.
They are providing support to the ECDC, which serves as a Community source of independent scientific advice, assistance and expertise from staff from its own resources or from those of recognised competent bodies acting on behalf of Member States authorities responsible for human health.
The ECDC cooperates with them in all its missions, and particularly on preparatory work for scientific opinions, scientific and technical assistance, collection of data, identification of emerging health threat and with regard to public information campaigns.
