Congratulations to Dr. Madhukar Pai, recipient of a new grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation: 820K over 2.5 years.

Funded by a new grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (PI: Madhu Pai), the McGill International TB Centre will host an online community of practice focused on engagement of private providers in TB care and control. The goal of the project is to create, nurture and maintain a dynamic south-to-south exchange of expertise and best practice to accelerate uptake of what works & close the know-do gap in the area of private provider engagement in TB. The learning network would be hosted by the McGill International TB Centre, and engage all major stakeholders (e.g. WHO, Stop TB Partnership, USAID, The Union, World Bank PATH, CHAI, FIND, etc).
