For decades, public health experts and economists have been warning of the enormous human toll and economic losses exerted by tropical diseases, notably malaria, dengue fever, and sleeping sickness. Funding agencies, philanthropies, and pharmaceutical companies have invested millions of dollars and euros into research to find a cure or vaccine. But while these major killers have drawn most of the public, funders' and scientists' attention, it has become clear during the past few years that many other “neglected tropical diseases” (NTDs) also have a considerable impact on the populations and economies of developing countries.
