Global Health from CABI is the definitive international public health database. It completes the picture of international medical and health research by capturing key literature not covered by other databases. Literature on developing countries, sociological aspects, and more — Global Health provides unique information on a wide range of biomedical topics, with a truly international reach.

GLOBAL HEALTH brings together the resources of two internationally renowned databases - the Public Health and Tropical Medicine (PHTM) database, previously produced by the Bureau of Hygiene and Tropical Diseases (BHTD), and the human health and diseases information extracted from CAB ABSTRACTS.

Dating back to 1973, together they provide a unique resource which offers a substantially deeper subject coverage of information related to human health and communicable diseases than many other sources currently available.

Global Health provides an alternative, complementary point of reference with a broad analysis of foreign language journals, books, research reports, patents and standards, dissertations, conference proceedings, annual reports, public health, developing country information, and other difficult to obtain material.

Global Health covers:

• Biomedical life sciences
• Public Health
• Health promotion
• Public Health Emergencies
• Epidemiology and biostatistics
• Environmental and occupational health
• Nutrition and food sciences
• Infectious diseases and parasitology
• Tropical and international health
