Abstract
The contributions of lesser developed nations to rabies research can be significant in several areas. The type of health system that supports complex veterinary-public health programs, the operational research that is required in these countries, the follow-up epidemiologic surveillance, and the involvement in technology transfer concerning new rabies vaccines and rapid and simple diagnostic procedures are all crucial to the success of rabies prevention in developing countries. Results of a relevant research project carried out in the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal, India, are discussed.
