10 is World Mental Health Day, and it's a good time for philanthropists to reflect on the critical need for more mental health research, reports Inside Philanthropy.

In its analysis, the philanthropy site found that major donors and foundations don't fund much mental health research, while smaller nonprofit organizations and universities do.
"These avenues have more flexibility to support scientists' higher-risk, higher-return research that might not receive backing through traditional funding channels and that can lead to significant discoveries," says the site's founder.
