The Fogarty International Center: How Americans Benefit from Global Health Research

Research!America
May 25, 2017

Diseases know no borders, as we’ve seen with Ebola, Zika, bird flu, SARS and other infectious disease outbreaks. The Fogarty Center is on the front-lines, creating local capacity to detect and address pandemics where they occur and forging partnerships that keep U.S. scientists on the cutting-edge of research globally. On May 25, Research!America, Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), and American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (ASTMH) hosted a webinar on the vital role the FIC plays in global health outbreaks and more.

Without continued support for health research, many of the most promising young scientists, their ideas and a myriad of potentially life-changing scientific breakthroughs will vanish into oblivion.
