Sleeping Beast: Tuberculosis

Sleeping Beast: Tuberculosis

Sarah Schmidiger, postdoctoral researcher at Swiss TPH, breaks down how this 'sleeping beast' works and what we can do to stop it. Dive deeper at our upcoming symposium "The Sleeping Beast: Tackling Diseases in their Dormant Stages" on 4 June 2026.
