While Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is known mostly for providing direct medical aid to people affected by conflict, epidemics, disasters, or exclusion from health services, we also conduct research aimed at improving patient care and advocating for evidence-based policy and practices. To this end we conduct hundreds of research studies each year, publish extensively in peer-reviewed journals, and present our findings at scientific conferences around the world, including several annual MSF-organized events.

With the MSF Science Portal we introduce a new platform that aims to be a « one-stop shop » for content related to this work, so that users anywhere can easily find, browse, access, share and use the knowledge our research generates. Alongside frequent updates of new publications, conference materials, reports and featured content, we will continue to develop this site and to expand its range of content. To learn more about the Portal and what it offers, check out the short videos and slide presentation in this collection.

MSF Scientific Days Asia 2024 is a conference that presents research, innovation, and experiences from treatment and humanitarian programmes across Asia. MSF Scientific Days brings together researchers, practitioners, academics, and patient representatives with the aim to catalyse improvements in the quality of care provided to patients and populations at risk. This is a platform for experts in the humanitarian global health field to come together, collaborate, and discuss the current trends and challenges in innovation and healthcare.
