SUBMISSION PERIOD: 13 February 2026 - 3 March, 2026 Late submission for time-sensitive research. Opens in March and closes in April.

This submission for virtual presentations opens on 13 February, 2026

COURSE PERIOD: November 2025 and February 2026. Biomedical research increasingly depends on the responsible collection, management, and reuse of large datasets and biological samples. This course introduces the principles and practices of data and sample governance to ensure that biomedical resources are managed ethically, legally, and effectively, while enabling their reuse for future research and innovation. The course comprises four discovery learning modules released monthly between November 2025 and February 2026. Each module includes short expert lectures, infographics, case studies, and interactive materials. Participants who complete all modules will receive a Certificate of Completion, issued by ESCMID.

Date: 29 January, 2026 This webinar will provide an overview of MICROBE, an interactive visualisation platform developed by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME), enabling exploration of global antimicrobial resistance (AMR) burden estimates and comparison across pathogens, drug classes, and geographies. Other open-access tools will be discussed, including the World Health Organization's Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) and the AMR R package. The AMR Data Repository, a new platform co-launched by the Global Research on Antimicrobial Resistance (GRAM) Project and the Infectious Diseases Data Observatory (IDDO) which curates high-value datasets, expands access for researchers, particularly in low and middle-income countries, and supports ethical data reuse, will also be introduced.

DEADLINE: January 2026 SEPTRE (SPIRIT Electronic Protocol Tool and Resource) is an innovative, web-based software solution that makes it easier to create, manage, and register high-quality protocols for clinical trials. From now until January 2026, The Global Health Network and EDCTP have a limited number of free individual three-year SEPTRE licenses for researchers based in low-resource settings.

DEADLINE: The Faculty of Medicine, Public Health, and Nursing at Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, which supports TDR’s Postgraduate Training Scheme and Research Training Centres, invites qualified candidates to apply for the Implementation Research (IR) Leadership Fellowship Programme for Public Health Impact for the academic year 2026/2027. This programme is funded by the Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR), co-sponsored by the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the World Bank and the World Health Organization (WHO). Only applicants from low- or middle-income countries (LMICs) in the WHO South-East Asia, Western Pacific or Eastern Mediterranean Regions are eligible. The objectives of the fellowship programme are to: • develop professional and innovative leadership in IR; • enhance the capacity of public health institutions to generate new knowledge through dedicated IR and contribute to improved health outcomes; and • establish a collaborative network of LMIC-based leaders in IR that will contribute to health policy and practice at local, regional and global levels.

RePORT Indonesia, in partnership with the TB Alliance and the Respiratory Programmatic and Research Institute, have developed Upskill TB, a free online learning platform designed to enhance knowledge and skills in the treatment and management of drug-resistant tuberculosis. The current version has expert-led courses on the innovative BPaL/M regimen.
