OUR RESEARCH

Our research addresses some of the world's most pressing health challenges.

It is focused on seven areas of unmet need of particular relevance to low- and middle-income countries. Our studies in Bangladesh take advantage of an extensive research infrastructure, including high-quality laboratory facilities, a major hospital and other clinical facilities, and multiple well-established field sites. We also maintain multiple collaborations with research groups and implementing partners in both the global North and the global South.
