Funding for TB Test???
As per today's wonderful update, the TB Project agencies (Gates Foundation and several Federal Institutes) appear to have significant interest in our tests and I'm sure they've been informed that the N-Assay will probably beat all other available TB tests.
Since raising $150,000 or so for the test's development might be a problem for NNLX, would it not be possible for any of those agencies to assist NNLX with the costs for developing the N-Assay TB test? This would be a very minor amount for a giant entity like The Gates Foundation,
One further point that I'm confused about. The TB project is using our BNP test based on a published journal article and they haven't demanded any further testing before using it.
Why does the N-Assay GBS test require further independent testing before it can be used since it's also based on a published journal article?
Comments welcome.
