The ERASE-TB team was well represented at this year’s Union World Lung Health Conference in Bali, with 5 oral presentations from Denise Banze, Claire Calderwood, and Leyla Larsson and 1 poster presentation from Mikaela Coleman (outlined below). All presentations were well received and incited engaging and thought-provoking discussions. The conference was a fantastic platform to underscore the value of the ERASE-TB and Imba Hutano studies and how they can contribute to future policy and programmes.
