The TBPod is a podcast for clinicians and policymakers caring for patients with tuberculosis. The podcasts present discussions with expert clinicians, researchers, policymakers and advocates about their work in the field of tuberculosis. Tuberculosis remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, and is an important contributor to morbidity among migrants arriving in Australia and New Zealand. There are around 1300 reported cases of TB in Australia each year, and a further 300 in New Zealand. Included in these figures are cases of multi-drug resistant (MDR) TB which pose significant barriers to treatment and management of the disease. The Australian government has committed to the global elimination of TB by 2030, but to do so requires the development of innovative new strategies, based on high-quality research, that has national and international reach. These podcasts aim to engage and update those who are interested in the field of tuberculosis through discussions with leaders in the field of tuberculosis.

The "Atlas of TB Innovations" is catalogue of all innovations in the fight against Tuberculosis (TB). Innovations showcases cutting-edge solutions, breakthrough technologies and transformative ideas that drive progress. Explore advancements shaping the future across various industries.

The Atlas of TB innovations is envisioned to be the updated single point reference for all innovations in the fight against Tuberculosis. It will catalogue scientific, technological, and operational advancements being made by innovators across the world. The Atlas will keep track of each innovations as they mature in its implementation and obtain certainty in its effectiveness and reliability, while securing various regulatory approvals. For each innovation on the Atlas, it showcases: 1. Live Status - of the innovation in the product maturity/ scaleup pathway and future trajectory 2. Value add - of the innovation in care process/ cascade/ programmatic protocols

The PHA Editors will consider any manuscript reporting original research on progress to achieving the SDGs. Suitable topics include infection-related topics such as vaccines, infection prevention control, outbreaks and antimicrobial resistance. Non-communicable diseases of public health importance include nutrition, the impact of climate change and planetary health. The journal aims to improve public health practice and we welcome operational research, lessons from implementation and evaluations of public health interventions. We will also consider submissions that focus on issues related to health care access and universal health coverage, quality, efficiency, cost-effectiveness, ethics and equity as well as education and training.
