July 9, 2021 -- Johnson & Johnson announced the company has launched the J&J Centers for Global Health Discovery.

The centers will work with academic institutions to accelerate discovery research that will address the world's most pressing global health challenges. The first J&J Satellite Center for Global Health Discovery was launched at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, and additional J&J Centers will launch worldwide through 2022.

Each satellite center will focus on entrenched and emerging threats that have a high unmet need, including tuberculosis, dengue fever, flavivirus, coronavirus, and antimicrobial resistance. The centers will fund early-stage science, innovation, and talent development.
