UC Berkeley — Tuberculosis Research

[Human Health and Wellbeing] Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $84,760 to the University of California, Berkeley to support Dr. Allison Roberts’ research on tuberculosis as she finishes her Life Sciences Research Foundation (LSRF) fellowship. We previously supported Allison as a member of the 2018 LSRF cohort, and we believe her research on inflammatory signaling responses to tuberculosis infections will add important information to the field. This falls within our focus area of scientific research, specifically within our interest in advancing human health and wellbeing.
