An independent non-profit foundation based in Geneva with offices in Uganda and India, FIND focuses on a disease portfolio covering tuberculosis, malaria and human African trypanosomiasis. In its commitment to develop technologies that can be used as near as possible to where patients first seek care, FIND has accumulated an impressive pipeline of new diagnostic technologies.
BCG World Atlas
Variations in BCG vaccination practices impact the interpretation of TB diagnostics, such as the widely used Tuberculin Skin Test (TST).
