Influential Mentor Training - The TRAC Influential Mentors series comprises five virtual sessions that focus on recent scholarship on mentorship, tools for mentors and mentees to strengthen relationships, mentoring across cultures, and building mentoring programs. One session features a panel discussion where experienced mentors and mentees will share best practices and lessons learned. This series is tailored for TB research mentors and mentees from various backgrounds and ranks. Participants who attend four out of five sessions will receive a certificate, however registered participants can attend select sessions. The sessions are led by Dr. Dawn Comeau, Director of Mentor Training at Emory’s TRAC and Professor at Rollins School of Public Health.

APPLICATION DEADLINE: 18 August, 2025 The GBD Fellowship is an early-career training program that provides opportunities for interdisciplinary research in health metrics to individuals with a doctorate degree or equivalent (PhD, MD, DPhil, MBBS). This program combines academic research, education and training, and professional work with mentoring from IHME faculty and researchers. The purpose of the Fellowship is to enhance an individual’s skills in conducting and leading in-depth methodological research on a variety of health metrics topics. The GBD Fellowship is a cohort-based program focused on bringing together a diverse cadre of talented researchers. This program provides a unique opportunity for Fellows to collaboratively exchange their expertise and insights, thereby enriching the collective knowledge base and advancing health metrics research. Refer to the website for detail information.

The 4th Virtual Roadshow focused on public-private TB care service delivery models, hosted by the TBPPM Learning Network India Chapter, which brings together experts to discuss innovative TB-PPM models, private sector engagement strategies, and key insights from STOP TB projects.

ITM has a strong history and reputation in science, education and service delivery. Students from over 30 countries specialise in tropical infectious diseases and health care. Our scientists carry out research in laboratories and in the field, in collaboration with partners in Africa, Asia and Latin-America. Our doctors and nurses offer travel advice, vaccinations and medical care tailored to the individual patient, treating imported diseases, HIV and STDs.

Application Deadline: 1 September 2025 These support antimicrobial research in low- to middle-income countries. Projects should address one of the following areas: • What are feasible and effective prevention strategies to prevent transmission of (resistant) pathogens in low resource settings? • What basic laboratory support does a healthcare system minimally need to tackle infectious diseases? • How do we improve antimicrobial use worldwide to ensure it is delivered only to those who need it? Funding amount is 15,000 pounds

The Mayo Clinic Center for Tuberculosis offers education, training, research support, and program development resources for healthcare professionals and public health providers. Please explore the website for more details.

The Mayo Clinic Center for Tuberculosis webinar library features recorded sessions covering diagnostics, treatment, prevention, and comorbidities, aimed at expanding individuals' knowledge and skills in tuberculosis care.

This monthly webinar series offers healthcare professionals the latest insights in tuberculosis (TB). Tuberculosis experts will discuss screening, diagnosis, and treatment of TB disease and latent TB infection (LTBI). Topics include considerations for pediatric and adult populations, clinical updates, diagnostic methods, and treatment strategies. Healthcare professionals managing patients with TB can stay informed on research developments and emerging treatment regimens for active TB and LTBI, exploring innovative approaches to enhance patient adherence and outcomes.

This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites eligible academic or research institutions to apply for funding support to purchase latest scientific equipment that will enhance and modernize research-supporting operations of existing shared biomedical research facilities. Targeted are laboratory research core facilities, animal research facilities, and other similar shared-use research spaces. The goal of this NOFO is to strengthen research-auxiliary activities of biomedical research facilities and to enhance the efficiency of their operations. The NOFO does not support the purchase of scientific research instruments or their components, nor components of building-level infrastructure equipment that indirectly support research activities.

This course requires about 40 total hours to complete. It is self-paced, has open enrollment, and can be accessed for 60 days.

Applications for the third round of the New York State Biodefense Commercialization Fund are now closed. Please check back for updates on the program. The $40 million Biodefense Commercialization Fund was created to encourage and accelerate the development and commercialization of solutions for serious infectious disease threats, including COVID-19 and its variants, while fostering the creation of new life science businesses and supporting industry growth. The Fund has offered grants to startup companies and academic institutions that are developing promising diagnostics, vaccines, therapeutics, and such other innovations as epidemiological surveillance tools, environmental controls, and clinical care advances that address or mitigate infectious disease threats. For the current application period, New York State seeks applications focusing on the specific areas of interest: - Novel platforms for development of rapid Point-of-Care (POC) diagnostics (examples include, but are not limited to, CRISPR and/or Isothermal-based platforms) with priority given to POC diagnostics that can perform as well as or better than existing lab tests. - Processes that integrate easy-to-use sample preparation and allow for access in low resourced settings. - Novel tools for sequencing and serology-based tests that support infectious disease and pathogen surveillance
