Team
ENDxTB brings together expertise and existing infrastructure to allow for the clinical testing of field-ready diagnostic tests and platforms for TB, and to provide a mechanism by which emerging tests and platforms can be evaluated as they become field-ready. To accomplish this goal the consortium combines the expertise of bacteriologists, immunologists, platform and test developers, and clinicians from four different continents.
The three project Principal Investigators Gerhard Walzl (SUN), Jayne Sutherland (MRCG) and John Belisle (CSU) will jointly direct the initiative, fostering synergy and integration of all project activities.
