A global network supporting teams and their ideas against neglected tropical diseases
Turning a promising finding into a treatment, diagnostic or practical health solution takes more than scientific expertise. Teams need to understand the people they are developing for, identify a clear path forward and access the right advice and resources.
Building on the success of the SPARK model pioneered at Stanford University, SPARK NTD brings education, expert mentorship and international collaboration to teams developing solutions for neglected tropical diseases.
