The International Society for Infectious Diseases (ISID)'s longstanding Research Grant Program, a cornerstone of our mission, continues to empower scientists and researchers in regions most affected by infectious diseases.

As part of our capacity-building efforts through the Gates Foundation-supported initiative, we're proud to spotlight recent peer-reviewed publications from our past grantees. These early-career researchers are making meaningful contributions across a range of critical global health topics:
