| Organization Description: |
| The mission of Premas Life Sciences is to deliver cutting-edge genomics and proteomics technology. Also, it has become crucial to leverage the most recent technologies to acquire a competitive edge in information mining and interpretation. Tuberculosis is one of the mortal infectious diseases and the leading cause of death worldwide. According to a recent WHO report, 10.6 million cases of the disease were reported, with India alone responsible for 28% of the global incidence. Although predominantly a treatable and preventable disease, TB is a severe global issue that disproportionately affects the most vulnerable and underprivileged individuals. In order to aid in the efforts to control TB, we are working on the development of a diagnostic assay for TB diagnosis. |
