As infectious diseases such as SARS, Monkeypox, Polio, HIV, and Ebola travel the globe and garner media attention, Parasites Without Borders staff are curating resources in a timely, ongoing basis. We believe the information posted here is worthy of further examination by the science and medical communities. Our primary goal remains to bring the latest medical and biological information to the forefront for researchers and practicing physicians.

FIMRC Fundraiser x Parasites Without Borders Kicks Off This Spring

Throughout May, June, and July, donations made to Parasites Without Borders (PWB) will be matched by the organization and donated to Foundation for International Medical Relief of Children (FIMRC), for a total gift of up to $10,000. Founded in 2002 by Dr. Vikram D. Bakhru, FIMRC is a U.S.-based nonprofit organization that works to improve access to care through innovative, self-sustaining health programs. FIMRC works alongside communities to improve health from the ground up — including building necessary infrastructure, such as constructing or updating buildings; ensuring communities have access to a healthcare professional; and educating on preventive health.
