Global Health Pathology Research: Purpose and Funding.

Like in all areas of science, it is important for funders and investigators of pathology to work together to develop a well-designed, well-executed clinical research agenda. In the first section of this article, the authors discuss how the National Institutes of Health (NIH) peer-review process applies to global health pathology research projects. Then, the authors present an illustrative sampling of NIH-funded projects with performance sites in low- and middle-income countries with 2 examples focused on cancer and anatomic pathology. Finally, the authors relate the research agenda to overarching strategic recommendations for enhancing global pathology. Published by Elsevier Inc.
