BuDb is the Buruli ulcer drug discovery database and the first of its kind.
It will aid the search for new treatment options for Buruli ulcer disease. BuDb is published in the Journal of Computational Biophysics and Chemistry and is accessible at http://197.255.126.13:3000/.
The Buruli ulcer laboratory network @BU_LabNet is a network of 13 laboratoires in 9 countries in @WHOAFRO committed to improving the molecular diagnosis of Buruli ulcer. With the vision of integrating other #skinNTD in the same plateform (#YAWS,#MYCETOMA, #LEISHMANIASIS)
We are proud to have successfully harmonized BU PCR procedures and implement the new #EQA within the BU-LABNET. It is time to proceed with integration of other #skinNTDS like yaws
