To find new molecules to treat tuberculosis as well as obesity, we participate in a Sinergia project with the University of Geneva and ETH Zürich to integrate heterogenous in silico bio and chemical data including a 15,500+ plant 🌱🪴🌿 library to enable their sharing.
Our team is finalising the knowledge graph integrating these vast amounts of data to enable queries and subsequent data analysis. A big step toward accelerating data-driven drug discovery!

RT @Eurosurveillanc: #WorldTBDay
The 2030 #SDG target to #EndTB is only a few years away
As it stands, the EU/EEA will not reach the set targets to end #tuberculosis as a #publichealth threat by then, according to @Vero_Cristea et al.

Check with your doctor for WHO-recommended completely oral shorter treatment. It has 2-3 regimens with fewer pills, 0️⃣ injections.

In acknowledgement of #WorldTBDay, I wanted to share this article I enjoyed:
https://harvardpublichealth.org/disease/tb-not-covid-19-is-the-plague-of-the-century
For those in more privileged parts of the world, tuberculosis (TB) might not be so visible, but TB remains one of the most deadly infectious diseases worldwide.
Especially with drug resistant TB strains constantly evolving, mitigating further TB burden should be an urgent priority.

In Africa, of the three million people who develop TB disease every year, nearly 160,000 are children 0-4 years old, and another 160,000 are 5-14 years old.
Every year, about 500,000 people in Africa die because of TB. Children make up 15% (75,000) of these deaths.
Less than half of the children aged 0-14 who have TB are diagnosed – so they never even start treatment.
