is the second grant we have received from the Murdock Trust and we are very appreciative of their renewed support to IDRI's mission against neglected diseases," commented Dr Steve Reed, Founder and Head of IDRI's Research and Development Program. "This funding is essential so that we can harness the most promising science to discover new TB drugs as quickly as possible so as to address this global emergency affecting millions of lives."

IDRI is dedicated to developing products not only to treat, but also to detect and prevent TB. IDRI's scientists have been working on TB vaccine development for more than 15 years under several grants and contracts from the NIAID. This multi-pronged approach aims at bringing the highest value to the global community.
