In our paper, now out in @GlobalHealthBMJ, we explored for the first time the effects of the large amounts of uncertainty that exists around the properties of self-clearance of Mtb infection on estimates of TB vaccine impact. gh.bmj.com/content/8/8/e0127… @richardwhite321 @ra_clark18

Our paper is now out in Epidemics! See how new R-package hmer can be used to easily and efficiently calibrate complex epidemiological models. @DannyScarponi @tandethsquire @ra_clark18 @fast4s @cmukandavire @cweerasuriya @richardwhite321 @lshtm_tbmod doi.org/10.1016/j.epidem.202…

Is the full value of new Tuberculosis vaccines being underestimated? You decide! Highlights from our new work with @WHO, released today, below... who.int/publications/i/item/…

Come and study for a PhD with us! Funded PhD opportunity to investigate the impact of inter-community transmission on reductions in tuberculosis incidence achieved through interventions mrc-lid.lshtm.ac.uk/files/20…

Our paper exploring the burden of subclinical TB now out in CID - around half of prevalent TB is subclinical, and not correlated with burden. Urgently need to reconsider passive symptom-based screening methods to interrupt ongoing transmission @LSHTM_TB. academic.oup.com/cid/advance…

Very pleased to see our modelling study of the Diamond Princess published in eLife. We estimate that ~ 3/4 of infections were asymptomatic and may have contributed substantially to transmission. Huge thanks to excellent collaborators and the reviewers. doi.org/10.7554/eLife.58699

Interesting discussion today led by @alexsrichards on a paper from Romain Ragonnet and @JamesTrauer on estimating the duration and mortality rates of untreated #TB - would be great to have a wider conversation on implications for past and future models academic.oup.com/cid/cid/adv…
