The institution listed isfor the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator.Objective: Current methods to detect M.tb. infection of non-human primates have significant limitations. Accordingly, this project aims to develop novel multiplex immunoassay methods to measure both antibody and cell-mediated immune responses to M.tb. in rhesus macaques. This project builds on recent advances in (1) knowledge of mycobacteria genomics, proteomics, and immunology and (2) novel diagnostic instrumentation for infectious disease.
