The NIH-funded Initiative for Feasibility of Novel Diagnostics for TB in Endemic Countries (FEND-TB) led by Rutgers University and FIND are inviting developers of TB diagnostics to submit proposals for evaluation of early-stage TB diagnostics and novel testing strategies.
The FEND-TB initiative provides access to adaptable and open trial protocols, with the aim to conduct clinical studies, laboratory evaluations of prototype assays, and economic analysis, along with transmission modelling.
