In our paper, now out in @GlobalHealthBMJ, we explored for the first time the effects of the large amounts of uncertainty that exists around the properties of self-clearance of Mtb infection on estimates of TB vaccine impact. https://t.co/ySNX45w5cO

Happy to share that the second paper from my #PhD is now available online at @BMCMedicine! 🎉
Our modelling has shown that introducing new #TB vaccines could have a substantial health and economic impact in #India by 2050

Is the full value of new Tuberculosis vaccines being underestimated?
You decide!

Due to the high number of registrations for the 17-18 November online workshop on the calibration of deterministic and stochastic models, we will repeat the workshop on 8-9 December. Info and registration at https://t.co/jaBlkZF5pS

New @BioMedCentral Public Health paper showing that the risk of #Mtb transmission can vary greatly between settings due to differences in ventilation and occupancy.
Public transport 🚍🚃 may be particularly high risk in South Africa 🇿🇦

Come and study for a PhD with us! Funded PhD opportunity to investigate the impact of inter-community transmission on reductions in tuberculosis incidence achieved through interventions https://t.co/Kc7Qra4ths
Our paper exploring the burden of subclinical TB now out in CID - around half of prevalent TB is subclinical, and not correlated with burden. Urgently need to reconsider passive symptom-based screening methods to interrupt ongoing transmission @LSHTM_TB. https://t.co/WdGkzryqAo
Very pleased to see our modelling study of the Diamond Princess published in eLife.
We estimate that ~ 3/4 of infections were asymptomatic and may have contributed substantially to transmission.
Huge thanks to excellent collaborators and the reviewers.

Interesting discussion today led by @alexsrichards on a paper from Romain Ragonnet and @JamesTrauer on estimating the duration and mortality rates of untreated #TB - would be great to have a wider conversation on implications for past and future models
