Very pleased to have my World View commentary published in Nature Magazine, on China’s growing role in global health, 27th August Edition.

China is becoming an increasingly important health partner across Africa, Asia and Latin America, supplying medicines, diagnostics, vaccines, medical equipment and digital-health systems at a speed, cost and scale that many countries find attractive. In this piece, I argue that the key question is no longer whether China will play a larger role in global health, but how these partnerships are designed.
These questions extend well beyond China - as global health moves towards more bilateral partnerships and traditional aid budgets contract, we need stronger principles for how major powers engage with lower- and middle-income countries.
I expand on these themes in my new book, China Cure: The Rise of a Biotech, AI Medicine and Global Health Superpower - pre-order here https://www.amazon.co.uk/China-Cure-Biotech-Medicine-Superpower/dp/1788219546
