Renewing US Leadership: Policies to Advance Global Health Research

Policy Report: Renewing US Leadership: Policies to Advance Global Health Research
Global Health Technologies Coalition, PATH
March 2013

This research highlights recent scientific and policy achievements that have spurred the development of important health innovations such as vaccines, drugs, and diagnostics.

It also offers recommendations for how US policymakers can continue making critical investments to produce the next generation of global health tools—proposals that are especially timely given the looming US budget cuts that threaten decades of work to develop tools against major killers, including AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. The report makes recommendations in two areas: advancing global health research and maximizing US investments in research and development.
