The increasing burden of drug-resistant tuberculosis introduces new challenges to traditional TB control and treatment programs and calls upon the global health community to collaborate and share scientific information in new and different ways. This 3-day workshop is sponsored by the Forum on Drug Discovery, Development, and Translation of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, Institute of Medicine (IOM) and the Institute of Microbiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).

The objective of the workshop series is to realistically assess the impact of and challenges resulting from drug-resistant TB globally and in the four countries with the most people affected (China, India, Russia, and South Africa).
