The Pediatric Sepsis Data CoLaboratory (Sepsis CoLab) is an international data-sharing network for collaboration to address pediatric sepsis mortality and morbidity. It is led by the Institute for Global Health (IGH) at BC Children’s Hospital and BC Women's Hospital + Health Centre, and the World Federation of Pediatric Intensive and Critical Care Societies (WFPICCS).
