Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation awards project to CENTD members

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (B&MGF) awarded a 2-year project to a partnership of five CENTD partners (Ghent University, Jimma University, Imperial College London, Erasmus MC, University of Calgary). The two main expected outcomes of this project are (1) to develop and validate a latrine-based surveillance system to inform soil-transmitted helminths control programs and (2) to collect well-characterized samples for further biomarker discovery and validation.
