1.3.1
 
  Functions of the Research Institutes 
Before examining the functions and role of the target institutes, research institutes 
related to infectious diseases control in the developed countries, such as NIID: 
National Institute of Infectious Diseases in Japan, CDC: Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention in the United States, and CDSC: Communicable Disease 
Surveillance Center in the United Kingdom, are analyzed so that the functions of 
such research institutes can be identified according to the three aspects of 1) 
Research, 2) Human Resources Development, and 3) Contribution to the Health 
Services.    In this study, these three functions are utilized as the framework for 
analysis.  
 
1.3.2
 
  Examination of the Target Research Institutes 
The expected role of the target research institutes is clarified by examining how 
JICA cooperation has had an effect on strengthening the functions of the research 
institutes and how it has contributed to infectious diseases control in comparison 
with the functions and position of the respective target research institutes in 
infectious diseases control. 
 
(1) Examination of the Functions and Positioning 
The current functions of the respective research institutes are analyzed with 
reference to the general functions of research institutes for communicable diseases 
defined in 1.3.1.    Subsequently, the positioning of the respective target research 
institutes in their countries is clarified taking into consideration the specific 
circumstances of the target countries, including health and medical policies, aid 
trends, and relations with related institutions for infectious disease.
