Notes
[Human Health and Wellbeing] Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $357,880 to the University of Edinburgh to support work to sequence clinical syphilis genomes in southern Africa, which will help inform efforts to develop a vaccine against syphilis. This work will be contracted out to the Botswana–Harvard AIDS Institute, which is collaborating with the University of Southern California and the Foundation for Professional Development Fund on this project. This is one of three grants we are making to support this collaboration. This falls within our focus area of scientific research, specifically within our interest in advancing human health and wellbeing.
