Implementing tNGS for Detection of Drug-Resistant TB in High Burden Countries

A webinar series organized by the Stop TB Partnership and FIND.

This webinar series will familarize participants with the recently published WHO recommendations on the use of tNGSt to detect TB drug resistance and help guide clinical decision-making, adoption considerations, available resources for implmentations, and the status of current efforts to improve assay performance. Early implementing high burden countries will share their experiences using tNGS including for clinical decision-making, and manufacturers of tNGS assays will be invited to share information on their products.
