Yes I am very familiar with GAP and presented to them several years ago about our oral amphotericin B technology to treat children with leishmaniasis. Excellent Group! Kishor

Hello,
I just wondered if this group is aware of the Global Accelerator for Paediatric Formulations Network (GAP-f) which is hosted by WHO?

Hi Kishor,
We'd love to have you re-engage with the AAPS Global Health Network. We're excited about the opportunities this year to rethink how we can more broadly engage the AAPS community in discussion and action. I look forward to hearing more about your engagement in the Neglected Global Diseases Initiative at UBC - maybe there's an opportunity for collaboration or connection between the AAPS GHN and this group.
I'll add you directly to our invite for the upcoming meeting; please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any trouble joining. My email is [email protected].

Thank you for your invitation. I would like to learn more about the Global Health Community at AAPS as I was a member many years ago but lost touch with the mission and focus of this group. UBC established the Neglected Global Diseases Initiative at UBC in 2010 and have been working on Developing Interventions for NTDS following our Global Health Access and Equity Principles.

We are officially relaunching the Global Health Community as an AAPS DNA (Dialogue Network Affinity) Group, and we want you to be part of this journey from day one.
Our upcoming kick-off meeting is the perfect opportunity for both long-time members and new faces to get involved. As we transition into the new AAPS communities framework, our mission remains clear: to raise awareness of global health challenges and foster a space for collaboration, innovation, and high-impact engagement among pharmaceutical scientists worldwide.
What's on the agenda?
2026 Goals: We've mapped out a year full of opportunities for members to contribute and lead.
Strategic Vision: We'll discuss ideas for building a Global Health Network with broad, measurable impact.
Interactive Feedback: We hope to focus our efforts on promoting discussion and engagement on global health topics regionally, nationally, and globally within the existing AAPS framework. We're excited to share our roadmap, but we need your voice to help shape how we best achieve our mission.
Whether you are passionate about equitable access, regulatory harmonization, or innovative delivery technologies for low-resource settings, there is a place for you here.
Let's work together to advance the future of global pharmaceutical sciences.
