Annual global spending on health research has more than tripled
in a period of 10 years rising to just under US$106 billion from
US$30 billion. Despite this sharp growth, the "10/90 gap" per-
sists. This study of financial flows for Health Research by the
Global Forum for Health Research is presented as a contribution
to answering the questions on how the world�s health research
resources are being used. Important gaps will be exposed and ac-
tion galvanized to close them � namely, by leveraging global
health research in a way that genuinely improves global health,
i.e. the health of the many � the 90 per cent � not just the
few.
