Fondation Mérieux
Roots for life
Mission
Benoît Miribel, Director-General
Fondation Mérieux is dedicated to controlling infectious diseases in developing countries. Its approach focuses on prevention and diagnosis and breaks the barriers that may exist between human and animal medicine, North and South, and all involved.
In each of its fields of activity, it brings together and mobilizes the world's top doctors, pharmacists, researchers, and specialists in infectious diseases, vaccinology, and epidemiology… It runs projects that contribute to developing and strengthening the capacity of local governments in public health matters.
Fondation Mérieux has four main goals: support scientific research, share knowledge, support health structures and support patients and their families.
