Investing in sepsis research: systematic analysis of UK public and philanthropic funding 1997–2010
نویسندگان
چکیده
A systematic analysis of infectious disease research funding to UK institutions was conducted. A total of 6615 infection-related studies by public and philanthropic funding organisations were included in the full analysis. We included all sepsis-related research for the period 1997 to 2010 and studies where the lead institution was in the UK. We excluded open-access data from the pharmaceutical industry, as it was under-representative of the total research undertaken by the industry.
