By joining the Leap Health Breakthrough Network, the Francis Crick Institute has aligned with other internationally leading academic and research institutions committed to solving serious global health challenges, such as cancer and infectious diseases.
Established by Wellcome Leap, a non-profit organisation founded by the Wellcome Trust, the network is made up of 21 world-class institutions representing over 150,000 researchers across six continents.
Sam Barrell, Chief Operating Officer at the Crick said: “The Crick is excited by the opportunity to engage in such a novel and ambitious funding initiative. The multidisciplinary, global teams that Leap will enable have the potential to drive transformational benefits for human health. We look forward to seeing the impact.”
