Research Priorities

Gates MRI focuses on programs aimed at reducing the burden of tuberculosis (TB) and malaria in low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs). LMICs, a term originally defined by the World Bank 1, are often the most impacted by such diseases.

The institute works through collaborating partners and organizations, coordinating and driving the full spectrum of biopharmaceutical development activities to address substantial global health concerns, for which investment incentives are limited.
