Grant Activity:
Developing optimal diagnostic tools for schistosomiasis: the public health implications for control and elimination
Purpose:
Schistosomiasis, one of the most socioeconomically devastating parasitic diseases, affects more than 200 million people worldwide. One major obstacle to controlling the disease is the lack of accurate and sensitive diagnostic tools. This project aims to develop affordable commercially viable kit(s) for accurate diagnosis of schistosomiasis, not only in Asia, but also in Africa. With such cost-effective, specific and sensitive tools, eradication of schistosomiasis can become a realistic prospect.
