Universities Allied for Essential Medicines (UAEM) has a two-fold mission: 1. to urge universities to ensure that lifesaving medical products developed in campus labs are accessible in developing countries; and 2. to facilitate and promote research on neglected diseases–diseases that devestate poor countries, but predominantly affect those too poor to attract private-sector R&D investment. In both cases, UC Berkeley is well-placed to make a difference. Learn more
