A global research network for non-communicable diseases

Research has been fundamental in the reduction of deaths from cardiovascular disease in high-income countries,1-3 and in showing that chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes can be prevented.4 Research to evaluate innovative strategies is crucial to control the pandemic of NCDs swe...

description Research has been fundamental in the reduction of deaths from cardiovascular disease in high-income countries,1-3 and in showing that chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as diabetes can be prevented.4 Research to evaluate innovative strategies is crucial to control the pandemic of NCDs sweeping through low-income and middle-income countries. The world urgently needs to build capacity in low-income and middle-income countries for research to prevent and control NCDs, and our network of 11 centres comprising some 120 institutions in 30 countries has much to offer.7 The network of centres was created in 2008 by an innovative collaboration between the US National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and UnitedHealth Group.8,9 When the first proposal was launched by UnitedHealth Group some 140 responses were received from 70 countries, showing the appetite for research on NCDs in low-income and middle-income countries.10,11 The two institutions that created the network have provided about US$60m in funding, but the centres have already raised around another $40m and should be sustainable when the initial funding ends.
