at Vadu (HDSS Vadu) in August, 2002 that seeks to establish a quasi-experimental design setting to allow evaluation of impact of health interventions as well as monitor secular trends in diseases, risk factors and health behavior of humans.
Vadu has struck research alliances with Regional, National and International Organizations. The iSHARE (www.indepth-ishare.org )- is a novel globally applicable solution from Vadu for enabling INDEPTH Network members to share their data on the web. IMVAC is an international collaboration with the Chest Research Foundation, Pune and the Imperial College, London to better understand COPD in developing world context. The Influenza Disease Burden in India (IDBI) study, in partnership with the National Institute of Virology, Pune and CDC Atlanta, is well placed to follow the influenza in rural areas. Vadu's foray into large community based GCP compliant phase II/III vaccine trials for meningitis, measles, HIB, typhoid and rota-virus is another important step in getting safe, effective and yet less expensive/affordable indigenously produced vaccines to licensure and use in India and globally. A recent strategic 5-year award jointly with paediatrics department of KEM, from the Dept. of Biotechnology, GOI is helping us build capacity to develop a Core Vaccine Research Unit at Vadu.
An exciting array of Translational Research (G2P studies) is ongoing at Vadu in collaboration with Institute of Genomics & Integrative Biology, GOI from both Ayurvedic and disease perspective. Vadu has extensively contributed to Project Ayurgenomics: Integration of Ayurveda to Genomics for field based research. 10000 volunteers from Vadu area participated in this study. Vadu has also developed a detailed phenotyping (DP) unit and molecular biology laboratory for primary investigations. The DP unit includes State of the art labs for heart rate variability testing, spirometry, skin testing, anthropometry and gustatory testing. Probably the only molecular biology lab in rural area, our lab is well equipped for RNA and DNA isolation and detection besides a dedicated fully equipped section for the clinical trials laboratory work.
Today's strength of Vadu is its ability to integrate research among and rational medical service delivery to the populations with support from the community and with capacity building of this very community in conducting community or hospital based research. Vadu strives to address its research needs through partnerships and collaborations with national and international institutions guided by principles of interdependence, equality, technology transfer and joint data ownership as also authorship. Above all, we believe in ethics and practice in conducting utmost ethical research.
We independently track vital events including births, deaths, causes of death, pregnancy outcome, migrations and marital status changes and serves to monitor trends in fertility and mortality inter alia over time.
The word "Demographic Surveillance" means to keep close track of the population dynamics. Vadu HDSS deals with keeping track of health issues and demographic changes in Vadu rural health program (VRHP) area. It is one of the most promising projects of National relevance that aims at establishing a quasi-experimental intervention research setting with objectives.
1. To create a longitudinal data base for
a. Efficient service delivery
b. Future research
c. Linking all past micro-studies in Vadu area
2. Monitoring trends in public health problems
3. Keeping track of population dynamics
4. Evaluation of intervention services]]>
India
Vadu HDSS covers 22 villages spanning approximately 232 square kilometers with as many as 50,000 households having 140,000 live population across two administrative blocks of Shirur and Haweli in Pune district of Maharashtra in western India.

Vadu area including 22 villages in two administrative blocks is the study area. This area was selected as this is primarily coverage area of Vadu Rural Health Program which is in function since more than four decade. Every individual household is included in HDSS. There is no sampling strategy employed as 100% population coverage in the area is expected.
