Researchers At Global Forum Showed Resolve To Develop New, Effective TB Vaccines

Devex: Global partnerships key to eradicating TB
Lewis Schrager, vice president of scientific affairs at Aeras

“…The fourth Global Forum on TB Vaccines [held in Shanghai in late April] presented both a sense of significant accomplishment in what the TB vaccine development field has learned thus far, and a sobering sense of the daunting challenges still remaining in the efforts to develop new and effective TB vaccines. Through an international commitment to combat this global disease, there seemed little doubt among forum attendees that these challenges would be met” (5/5).
