Last month the Global Network co-hosted a panel at the International AIDS Conference calling attention to the link between HIV and NTDs. The topic will now take center stage at a colloquium next month where scientists will discuss developments and new research on helminth diseases and co-infections with HIV, Malaria and TB. Our own Neeraj Mistry, managing director for the Global Network, will be speaking at the event about the global context of NTDs as diseases of poverty. We invite anyone who is interested in NTDs to join us at the colloquium which is taking place next month in Paris, France. Stay tuned for more information!
