Are you a K-12 librarian? Or a public librarian working with K-12 staff and students? If yes, then the CDC has a new app for you to explore.

Scientists and gamers alike can now play disease detective, through “Solve the Outbreak,” a new iPad app from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The app lets users assume the role of a disease outbreak investigator in the agency’s Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) by navigating three fictional outbreaks based on real-life events. Users get clues, review data, and make decisions to determine the cause of the outbreak. Visit http://ow.ly/hXV5B for more information. /da
