The first annual Global Health Research Congress is an invitation only convening of 150 - 200 leading scientists, funding organizations and policy leaders to discuss the most critical biomedical research results and the most important research directions.

The Congress will be held in concert with the Pacific Health Summit and is part of a "Global Health Week" consisting of several important meetings convening in Seattle in June 2009.

The Congress format will consist of moderated panels that begin with high-level data presentations followed by interactive discussion among the panelists and the audience. The inaugural Congress will have an emphasis on tuberculosis (TB) as a link to the Pacific Health Summit; panels on other infectious diseases will complete the program.
