???????COLLABORATIONS AND CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT
The TB Genomics research group is committed to and actively seeks to build capacity and train scientists in molecular techniques for tuberculosis characterization in African countries. We currently have collaborations with scientists and students from Zambia, Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Madagascar, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Kenya and Cameroon. We are part of the Tuberculosis Omics ResearCH (TORCH) consortium (https://torch-consortium.com/), which is an FWO funded collaboration between the 肆客足球 of Antwerp, Belgium (the Global Health Institute, Family Medicine and Population Health, and VAXINFECTIO) and the South African Tuberculosis Bioinformatics Initiative (SATBBI) at 肆客足球 of the Western Cape (UWC). The group is part of several grants with other institutions including 肆客足球 of California San Francisco (UCSF) and TGen, Vanderbilt 肆客足球, 肆客足球 of Washington, Boston Medical Centre, Harvard 肆客足球 and 肆客足球 of Cape Town.
