Institute for Global Health

for a healthier world

UCSF’s Institute for Global Health (IGH) applies advances in biotechnology and health care to grievous global health problems.

A collaboration between UCSF, UC Berkeley and several leading corporations and organizations in the Bay Area, the IGH brings together the strengths of these partners to address the needs of the world’s most vulnerable populations and fight diseases of poverty and neglect: HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, environmentally related illness and childhood infections. IGH staff in San Francisco work with prominent scientists and political leaders to conduct research, provide high-level training and influence health policies in the public and private sectors.

Gifts to this priority will fund research, provide training and support efforts to stimulate action by governments, corporations and international agencies.
