Today is #WorldTBDay. #Tuberculosis - also known as TB - remains one of the world’s deadliest infectious killers. Each day, over 4,100 people lose their lives to it & close to 28,000 people fall ill with this preventable & curable disease. More: bit.ly/3IznRQk

#WorldTBDay Zooming in! 1 - Tuberculosis infected Mouse lung. Arrowheads indicating TB granuloma (niche for M. tuberculosis bacteria). 2 - Section of one lobe of TB infected Mouse lung (Square indication a Granuloma region). [Scale=1000µm]

VaradhaLab_NCBS at NCBS is studying how the M. tuberculosis #bacteria (bacteria that causes TB) interacts with the human cell during #infection. Looking at these host-pathogen interactions, they aim to understand the #disease better and find evidence to improve #healthcare.

Webinar Alert! To mark World TB Day, TIGS is organising a webinar 'TB - The Silent Killer - Understading Disease Dynamics, Diagnostics and Treatment' (1/3) 🗓️ 𝟯𝟭𝘀𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵, 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟮 ⏳ 𝟯 𝗣𝗠 Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…

#WorldTBday Ibn Umar from VaradhaLab_NCBS is looking at the interplay between Host - #Lysosome and the microbe - #Mycobacterium #tuberculosis (M.tb) using live cell imaging. In this video he shares you see the lysosomes in red and M.tb in green.
