Grant Activity:
Genomics to Inform Tuberculosis Elimination Strategies
Purpose:
In 2017 10 million people fell ill with TB and just over 3 people died every minute. In high burden, resource poor countries, disease diagnosis can be slow, treatment is long, stopping spread is difficult, and the current vaccine is poorly effective. New tools to combat this global infectious disease epidemic are urgently required. This research will use cutting-edge genomic technologies to provide critical knowledge and the momentum needed for improved vaccines, drugs and diagnostic tests.
