SOUTH AFRICAN TUBERCULOSIS BIOINFORMATICS INITIATIVE

​As tuberculosis research in South Africa has become increasingly reliant on molecular biotechnologies, the volume of data produced has grown considerably. The South African Tuberculosis Bioinformatics Initiative (SATBBI) was created in response to this growth, creating a group of bioinformatics researchers engaged with the tuberculosis research community in South Africa.

SATBBI has been funded by Stellenbosch University, the South African Medical Research Council, the South African Directorate of Science and Technology, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
