Abstract

The goal to reduce the burden of snakebite envenoming is challenged by the gaps in evidence for clinical care and public health. These evidence gaps and the absence of a strong network are illustrated by bibliometrics. The African Snakebite Alliance is a multidisciplinary group focusing on research themes which will generate evidence needed to shape policy and practice.
