Tuberculosis (TB) is the world’s leading infectious killer and more than half of TB cases occur in Australia’s region. I have developed a software program and used it to simulate improved TB control in eight countries across the world. In this fellowship, I will extend this program to allow simulation of TB transmission across multiple countries. This will allow me to compare the effects of TB control programs in Australia and overseas, as well as to re-estimate the global number of TB deaths.

结核病(TB)是世界头号传染病杀手，超过一半的结核病病例发生在澳大利亚地区。我已经开发了一个软件程序，并用它来模拟世界上八个国家改善的结核病控制。在这项研究中，我将扩展这一计划，使其能够模拟结核病在多个国家的传播。这将使我能够比较澳大利亚和海外结核病控制计划的效果，并重新估计全球结核病死亡人数。
