Three new studies are being put out for bid by TDR as the first step to host and manage a new pooled fund to support research and development (R&D) that will address diseases that mainly affect low- and middle-income countries. Those interested are recommended to read all three proposals, since they are interrelated, but each request has specific focus and it is not required (nor expected) that one person/group would submit proposals for all three.
 
Intentions to bid will be accepted until 22 June 2015 at 23:59 CETFull proposals will be accepted until 5 July 2015 at 23:59 CET
