01The scale

164 U.S.-based organizations in 29 states and DC are working to end malaria.

Of the 94 with published profiles, 69 document partnerships in 55 malaria-endemic countries across Africa, Asia-Pacific and Latin America.

U.S.-based means at least one site in the United States. 70 are listed by name and location while their profiles are pending. IVCC and SORA, profiled but based abroad, are not counted here.

02Where the work goes

Uganda leads: 28 U.S.-based organizations work there, then Kenya (23) and Nigeria (22).

Five countries hold 34% of all organization-to-country partnerships. At the other end, 13 endemic countries have a single U.S. partner organization and 12 more have two.

Distinct U.S.-based organizations whose partnership statements name the country. An organization counts once per country, however many U.S. sites it has.

03Who connects to whom

Maryland reaches 37 endemic countries, more than any other state.

Massachusetts (32) and the District of Columbia (31) follow. 8 states and DC connect to Africa, Asia-Pacific and Latin America alike.

Counting rule: an organization's countries count for every U.S. state where it has a site, so one organization can appear in several rows. Cells count distinct organizations. Shown: the 10 states with the widest reach and the 14 countries with the most U.S. organizations.

04What kind of work

Research is the most common kind of work: 42 of 69 organizations do it.

Next come programs and delivery (29) and product testing (26). Clinical trials (12) and manufacturing and supply (14) are the work of fewer organizations.

Method: kinds are read from each partnership's description with a published keyword rulebook, and one partnership can have several. Each organization counts once per kind. Base: the 69 U.S.-based organizations with a partnership in an endemic country; 305 of their 334 partnership statements match at least one kind.

05The pipeline

Only 10 of 85 profiled innovators span discover, develop and deliver.

Most research institutions work in discovery (27 of 35); most technology and manufacturing companies in delivery (17 of 20). 18 work only in delivery and 9 only in discovery.

An organization counts in every stage it works in. The 11 advocacy organizations have no stage (“n/a” in the source) and are not shown. Includes IVCC and SORA, profiled but based abroad.

06The flow

Most of the pipeline runs to Africa: 60 of 85 innovators document partnerships there.

The widest path runs from research institutions through development to Africa (18 organizations). 23 innovators name no endemic country yet.

Band width counts an organization once for each stage and region it reaches, so bands add up to more than the number of organizations. Numbers on the nodes are distinct organizations. Innovators only, including IVCC and SORA (based abroad). Hover a node to trace it.

07Working together

NIH or NIAID (34) and Gates Foundation (33) are the most-named U.S. partners.

Numbers are profiled organizations naming each one. Next is PATH (11). In all, 240 of 429 partner mentions point to organizations in the atlas, linking 106 of them through 239 connections.

Drawn: the 44 most-connected organizations and the links among them. Dashed lines name the parent institution (57 of 239 links). Most NIH and NIAID mentions name the agency rather than a profiled unit, so they are counted but not drawn. All published profiles, IVCC and SORA included.
