What We Do

Health & Medicine

We are supporting advances in medicine and innovations in healthcare that will bring major new opportunities for humanity. We are also working to understand how we can better address critical challenges, such as those posed by the emergence and spread of infectious diseases, and the problems arising from increasing burdens of chronic illnesses – both of which are becoming more urgent and widespread as global populations urbanise and age.
