SPRINT-TB: Moving Tuberculosis Research Forward
SPRINT-TB is a translational research programme hosted at the National University of Singapore's Center for Translational Medicine. Our efforts cover the entire research journey, from pinpointing biological targets all the way to getting treatments into the hands of patients.


Themes That Guide Our Research
Our programme is built around four interlinked research themes that collectively span the path from discovery through to patient care.
- Theme 1: Target Discovery — identifying the biological targets behind new interventions.
- Theme 2: Drug Development — converting validated targets into candidate treatments.
- Theme 3: Clinical Trials — evaluating promising treatments through clinical studies.
- Theme 4: Treatment Delivery — making sure effective treatments reach the people who need them.
