Understanding and intervening in tuberculosis and HIV associated tuberculosis

Research opportunity for a postdoctoral clinical fellow in Robert J Wilkinson's lab.  

Introduction

 

The laboratory and associated clinical research programme in South Africa is interested in understanding and intervening in tuberculosis and HIV-tuberculosis. We are particularly interested in tuberculosis meningitis and pericarditis, B and T cell immune responses, and latent tuberculosis.

We rely on materials arising from high-quality clinical studies for reverse translational studies that increase knowledge of pathogenesis and the mechanisms of treatments.
