- Key functions in support of this R&D mission include identifying and filling gaps in scientific knowledge, creating or implementing new technology platforms that can accelerate research in support of our goals, investing in potentially transformative ideas, continuous surveying of an ever-changing scientific and technological innovation space, and the fostering of an effective ecosystem of global health innovation, funding and partnership to advance the foundation's mission.
- Our areas of focus include vaccines, biologics, drugs, microbiome interventions, and reproductive and sexual health.
- The effective development of preventive and therapeutic interventions (including drugs, vaccines, biologics, microbiome and other interventions) requires an ability to 'translate' information from cellular and animal models to human disease and back again.
