The University of California at San Francisco and Berkeley Tuberculosis Research Advancement Center (UC TRAC) is launching a Tuberculosis Community Advisory Board (UC TB-CAB) in August 2023.
UC TRAC is calling for applications from diverse individuals based in Uganda, Vietnam, and the San Francisco Bay Area to join its group of strong, research-literate community activists from TB-affected communities and networks in Africa, Asia, and North America. The UC TB-CAB is looking to establish representation that is diverse in geography, gender, experience and expertise.
If you are interested in engaging with TB scientists, research institutions, and product sponsors, and in promoting access to the benefits of TB research, please consider applying to become a member of the UC TB-CAB. Individuals from high-burden countries and from all communities affected by TB, especially those often neglected in the context of TB, are especially encouraged to apply. This includes anyone irrespective of HIV status, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or lifestyle.
Deadline to apply is June 25, 2023. Full details about the application process and the UC TB-CAB membership are available here.
