The Emory chapter has done amazing work this past school year to move forward the cause of access to medicines. Working closely with their university administration, they helped bring about the adoption of Global Access Guiding Principles which emphasize the importance of access for Emory-discovered innovations. The principles can be accessed here: http://www.ott.emory.edu/For_Inventors/Policies/Emory%20Global%20Access%20Principles.pdf.

Following up on a previous presentation, several Emory chapter members also attended the World AIDS Conference in Mexico City to present on their experience. You can view download their poster here: http://www.essentialmedicine.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/aids-2008-072808.pdf.

Great work Emory!
