GBH Science and Health Fund

Supporting Science and Health Programming

This is a time of unprecedented scientific discovery and innovation. Scientific breakthroughs are leading to solutions for a complex array of issues affecting our environment, health, and wellbeing. Boston is a leader in medical, biotech, and life sciences research and development, contributing to countless innovations that have shaped the global scientific and public health landscape.

Now, this work is under threat. Federal funding for scientific and medical research is being cut. Lifesaving treatments are being delayed, studies suspended, and facts are being questioned. Science itself is under attack. Never has there been a more important time for the public to be aware of and take part in debate and discussion about the industries and institutions at the forefront of the discoveries that affect our society and our health. GBH is committed to delivering information and providing insight into new developments in the medical, health, life science and biotech fields. We are establishing the GBH Science and Health Fund to provide essential resources to support this work.

Gifts to the GBH Science and Health Fund support programs, reporting, and educational resources that contribute to public understanding of science, health, and technology and inform audiences about the issues that affect their lives. From local reporting on 89.7 on medical and technological breakthroughs developed by local biotech and life science incubators, to NOVA’s nationally broadcast and deeply researched explorations of scientific discoveries, GBH is uniquely positioned to bring audiences unbiased, thoughtful, and deeply informed coverage of timely issues around science, health and medicine.
