ScreenTB
Evaluation of host biomarker-based point-of-care tests for targeted screening for active TB
- Description
ScreenTB is a project funded by the second European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP2). Our goal is to develop a point-of-care, hand-held, rapid screening test for tuberculosis (TB) that can be conducted on finger-prick blood in a laboratory-free manner. Our team consists of experts from Africa and Europe and most of them have already successfully worked together in the African European Tuberculosis Consortium (AE-TBC), a project that has been funded in the first programme of the EDCTP and run from July 2010 until June 2013.
