My research is focused on identifying accurate and affordable TB diagnostic tools to improve the efficiency of TB diagnosis and delivery of TB preventive therapy for high-risk populations in resource-limited settings. I have experience in leading international studies of diagnostic accuracy and longitudinal cohort studies.
