Biography

Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the world’s leading infectious disease threats and a major global health obstacle. TB disproportionately affects low- and middle-income countries, where limited healthcare resources, poverty, and overcrowding contribute to its spread. Despite being preventable and treatable, challenges such as delayed diagnosis, drug-resistant TB, and co-infection with HIV continue to hinder control efforts. Addressing TB requires sustained global commitment, improved healthcare access, and innovative strategies to reduce its burden and ultimately achieve its elimination. I am an emerging researcher with a strong interest in TB and its impact on public health. My work explores ways to enhance diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, with the aim of contributing to the global fight against TB.
