Abstract
Science philanthropy is experiencing a growth spurt, propelled by the newly acquired wealth of individuals and foundations, as well as a desire to address challenges such as infectious disease, fire, drought, and food and water security. Especially in the United States, this is altering the dynamics of the research ecosystem, which has been dominated by government funding since the end of World War II. This change comes with new perspectives and approaches to solving the world's problems. And it comes with a commitment to increase equity in funding.
