## Diseases
- [Dengue](https://dndi.org/diseases/dengue/) - Dengue is a rapidly spreading climate-sensitive disease with no specific treatment. We’re building a global partnership with dengue-endemic countries to develop a first treatment.
- [Cryptococcal meningitis](https://dndi.org/diseases/cryptococcal-meningitis/) - Without treatment, it's deadly for thousands of people with advanced HIV. We’re working to improve access to life-saving treatments and developing an easier-to-use formulation.
- [Pandemic Preparedness](https://dndi.org/diseases/pandemic-preparedness/) - We are combining our not-for-profit drug discovery and development experience and our collaborative, open-science model to help prepare for future pandemics.
- [Schistosomiasis](https://dndi.org/diseases/parasitic-worms/schistosomiasis/) - Schistosomiasis is a water-borne infection causing chronic ill-health and prolonged suffering, especially for women and children. We’re working to develop new anthelminthic treatments to stop the cycle of infection and prevent lifelong harm.
- [Visceral leishmaniasis](https://dndi.org/diseases/visceral-leishmaniasis/) - Visceral leishmaniasis is one of the world’s leading parasitic killers. We're working on a new generation of treatments to replace painful, ineffective drugs.
- [Sleeping sickness](https://dndi.org/diseases/sleeping-sickness/) - We revolutionized the treatment of fatal sleeping sickness with an oral cure to replace toxic, cumbersome medicines. We are now advancing to a single-dose pill.
- [River blindness](https://dndi.org/diseases/parasitic-worms/river-blindness/) - River blindness is caused by parasitic worms transmitted by blood-feeding insects. We aim to develop an effective, field-adapted treatment.
- [Parasitic worms](https://dndi.org/diseases/parasitic-worms/) - We are joining forces with partners to develop new treatments that can cure parasitic worms before they cause lasting harm – and working to make sure they are suitable for all people who need them, including young children and pregnant women.
- [Lymphatic filariasis](https://dndi.org/diseases/parasitic-worms/lymphatic-filariasis/) - Transmitted by mosquitoes, lymphatic filariasis causes painful swelling of the limbs and lifelong disability. We’re working to develop a safe, effective, affordable treatment to help eliminate this stigmatizing disease.
- [Hepatitis C](https://dndi.org/diseases/hepatitis-c/) - Hepatitis C is caused by a blood-borne, silent virus, leading to cirrhosis, cancer, and death. We have developed a simple-to-use, affordable cure.
- [Mycetoma](https://dndi.org/diseases/mycetoma/) - Fungal mycetoma is a slow-growing infection that causes severe disabilities. There is no effective cure. We ran the world’s first mycetoma clinical trial.
- [Paediatric HIV](https://dndi.org/diseases/paediatric-hiv/) - The needs of children with HIV have long been neglected. We have developed child-friendly formulations to replace bitter-tasting, refrigerated treatments.
- [Chagas disease](https://dndi.org/diseases/chagas/) - Potentially fatal Chagas disease is transmitted by kissing bugs. We're searching for new drug candidates and working to boost access to care.
- [Cutaneous leishmaniasis](https://dndi.org/diseases/cutaneous-leishmaniasis/) - Cutaneous leishmaniasis is transmitted through sandfly parasites, causing disfiguring skin lesions. We are developing safer, shorter, affordable treatments.
- [Antimicrobial resistance](https://dndi.org/diseases/amr/) - In 2016 we launched the Global Antibiotic Research and Development Partnership (GARDP) together with the WHO. We continue to share R&D expertise and capacity.
- [Malaria](https://dndi.org/disease/malaria/) - Access to effective treatment is central in the fight against malaria. The recently published PREGACT study has shown that artemisinin-based combination therapies are effective in pregnant women with malaria in Africa, without the safety concerns of other treatment types. Another success for malaria treatment comes with the World Health Organization’s announcement that the fixed-dose combination of artesunate+mefloquine (ASMQ) shelf-life has been extended from two to three years, which will greatly help with storage and distribution.

Albagir is a 35-year-old man from El Rawashad village in El Gaziera State, Sudan. The village has reported many cases of mycetoma. He developed mycetoma on his left foot 20 years ago and 5 years later he developed mycetoma on his right foot. He has a disability and cannot express his feelings. Mycetoma exacerbates his condition. He underwent below-knee amputation of the left foot and still has right foot mycetoma.
- [Mycetoma stories: Mohammed El Safi](https://dndi.org/videos/2023/mycetoma-stories-mohammed-el-safi/) - Mohammed El Safi is a musician who lives in Khartoum, Sudan. His experience with mycetoma started several years ago, during his traditional wedding ceremony preparation, when his sister noted a small painless mass between his toes. She asked him to consult a doctor. Because it was not painful, he ignored it. The mass gradually increased, until he visited the Mycetoma Research Centre. However, he was not regular with the follow-up and treatment. When he eventually went back for treatment, an amputation had to be carried out as the only treatment option.
