Investigating the Impacts of Climate Variability and Climate Change on Fungal Pathogens of Public Health Importance
Fungal infections are an emerging threat to global health due to multiple factors such as climate change and antifungal resistance. Despite their significance, research on fungal pathogens lags behind research on other organisms.
There is a critical need to explore how climate variability and climate change impact fungal pathogens and to gather data that support or may support this research. Consequently, Wellcome is inviting qualified consultancy teams, think tanks, and do tanks to submit proposals that will contribute to our understanding of the potentially complex relationships between fungal pathogens and climate.
This RFP aims to support comprehensive reviews and data analyses that might identify existing gaps in research, data, and knowledge. The selected supplier will contribute to clarifying the current state of evidence and data availability in this field to inform future investments and catalyse novel research.
