“About 30 percent of the measurements we make are not available from any other lab in the world. The other 70 percent are conducted with unusually high levels of quality.” - James Pirkle, M.D., Ph.D. |
The CDC Foundation helps public health associations, government organizations, universities and research institutions collaborate with CDC on research projects and other public health initiatives. By tapping into the expertise of CDC scientists and the capabilities of CDC's state-of-the-art research facilities, these organizational partners are able to accelerate or expand programs to address a variety of public health threats. Whether it is analyzing the impact of industrial chemcials on our health or exploring the effectiveness of insecticide-treated bed nets against malaria in sub-Saharan Africa, organizations help CDC expand its field of research and reach specific communities more effectively with health messages and solutions. Organizations may also help advance the mission of the CDC Foundation and improve public health by providing unrestricted support through the Annual Alliance.
