TB is a global public health problem, responsible for the deaths of 2 million children and young adults annually. Drug resistant strains of TB are emerging and pose a threat even in countries where TB is well controlled, such as Australia. Research undertaken in this CRE will translate into improved treatments, diagnostics and strategies to prevent transmission. The CRE will build capacity for research on TB in our region and provide a legal framework to support public health policy.

结核病是一个全球性的公共卫生问题，每年造成200万儿童和青年死亡。耐药结核菌株正在出现，甚至在结核病得到良好控制的国家，如澳大利亚，也构成威胁。在该中心开展的研究将转化为改进治疗、诊断和预防传播战略。该中心将建设本地区结核病研究的能力，并提供一个支持公共卫生政策的法律框架。
