I would certainly add the need for non-invasive pediatric friendly samples for TB testing in this population.

Congratulations Oghenebrume Wariri 👏

Apt!

And the cycle goes again... To think that these #earlycareerresearchers already have abstracts accepted and travel grant/sponsorship secured but they could still miss out on excellent dissemination/networking opportunities should be unacceptable in the least. Global TB Program TBnet

Congratulations Sheila Sheila Agyeiwaa Owusu. Keep making us proud.

3 cross-cutting poster presentations in #childhoodTB by Dr T's group at the recent EDCTP Forum in #France. Excited to see our work in #childhoodTB here at MRC Unit The Gambia at LSHTM presented by colleagues at the EDCTP forum😍. 👏👏 Toyin Togun, PhD FFPH

Our new paper in Pediatric Pulmonology reveals that children and adolescents still experience reduced lung health even after "successful" #TB treatment. We must prioritise #PostTB care in young people. Beate Kampmann Toyin Togun, PhD FFPH Edem Fabian Sheila Agyeiwaa Owusu Full-text link: bit.ly/4aQ6XvE

Dr Alice (Alyson) Hillis LSHTM TB Centre Edem Fabian from MRC Unit The Gambia at LSHTM presenting the "diagnostic performance of computer-aided detection for #TB in an exclusively paediatric population in The #Gambia."

Grateful for the opportunity to be on this cohort of trainees as an early career researcher in Africa. The knowledge and experience gained have been very impactful and I cant wait to add outputs here. Thank you Toyin Togun, PhD FFPH West African Network for TB, AIDS and Malaria MRC Unit The Gambia at LSHTM

Chest Xray interpretation with AI algorithms for TB detection in children is promising. But the need to improve performance in this unique population can not be overstated.

It has been a long run but I am excited to come back with the 1st output that addresses a major need in the Paediatric TB diagnostics space. #OpenAccess link: publications.ersnet.org/content/erj/64…
