Supporting Our Nation's Epidemiologists
About us
In 2018, the CSTE Foundation (CSTEF) was established to address critical funding shortages at the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) and support their mission to develop, expand and diversify the epidemiology workforce. Applied Epidemiologists at the state and local level are the public’s disease detectives. We rely on them to safeguard our health as they respond rapidly to emergencies such as COVID-19, anthrax, measles, Zika virus, West Nile virus, the opioid epidemic, gun violence, multi-state foodborne illnesses, and natural disasters. Their work eliminates or limits disease transmission every day and prevents disease, disability, injury, and premature death. Our goal is to save lives and improve the public’s health by strengthening the 1,700+ members of CSTE and their public health agencies. We believe education plus funding for new, developmental, and under-resourced efforts will have the benefit of improving disease surveillance and epidemiologic practice through training and capacity development and promoting effective use of data to guide public health practices, thus saving lives and limiting the spread of debilitating disease and death.

The CSTE Foundation joins the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists in mourning the loss of Dennis Perrotta - a treasured friend and valued supporter. We send our sincere condolences to his family and all who knew, loved, and admired Dennis.
CSTE mourns the loss of Dr. Dennis Perrotta, a great leader, contributor, and friend to our organization. Dr. Perrotta served as CSTE President from 1995-96 and was the State Epidemiologist in Texas for many years until his retirement in 2005. That same year, Dr. Perrotta won the CSTE Pumphandle Award, which recognizes outstanding achievement in the field of applied epidemiology. He was nothing less than a titan in both CSTE’s history and epidemiology itself. But perhaps most memorably, Dennis was a kind and joyous spirit—impossible to ignore and generous to all. We will miss seeing his smiling face at our Conference, which he made a point to attend well into retirement. Several staff reflected this week on just how much we learned from him, surpassed only by how much we enjoyed simply being around him. We offer our thoughts to his wife, Shari, and the rest of Dennis’ family and friends during this time. To learn more about Dennis' life, please read his obituary at https://lnkd.in/eHcTr7Rf.
