With offices in the United Kingdom (UK), Australia, China, and India, our 700+ staff members support 245+ active projects and clinical trials over 50 countries, complemented by an additional 400+ staff in our social enterprises. We focus on the global health challenges that cause the greatest loss of life, the greatest impairment of life quality and the most substantial economic burden, particularly in resource-poor settings.
Together with our academic partners, Imperial College London in the UK, UNSW Sydney in Australia, and Manipal Academy of Higher Education in India, we work with a global network of collaborators, undertaking clinical, population and health systems research.
Our experts are among the most cited globally, bestowed accolades for excellence and innovation, and regularly participate in policy fora.
