How to Join WIPO Re:Search as a Provider, User, or Supporter

Providers

Neglected tropical diseases are debilitating and often life threatening. The task of developing treatments for--and perhaps even preventing--such diseases, which disproportionately affect the least developed countries, is critically important.

Providers to WIPO Re:Search have this mindset. These organizations joined the initiative because of a desire to improve the health of the poor around the world, and to aid in the development of new medicines for diseases with little or no commercial market.

If you think you can contribute something towards the above goal ^_ knowledge ^_ , compounds, patents, services ^_ you can be a Provider.
