The Centre for the AIDS Programme of Research in South Africa (CAPRISA) is a designated UNAIDS Collaborating Centre for HIV Prevention Research. The main goal of CAPRISA is to undertake globally relevant and locally responsive research that contributes to understanding HIV pathogenesis, prevention and epidemiology as well as the links between tuberculosis and AIDS care. CAPRISA provides a unique opportunity to network with global leaders in the field of HIV and TB to remain abreast of the latest scientific and research trends. CAPRISA was created in 2001 and formally established in 2002 under the NIH-funded Comprehensive International Program of Research on AIDS (CIPRA) by five partner institutions being the University of KwaZulu-Natal, University of Cape Town, University of Western Cape, National Institute for Communicable Diseases, and Columbia University in New York. CAPRISA conducts research in four main Scientific Programmes namely: HIV Pathogenesis and Vaccines, HIV and TB treatment, Microbicides, and Prevention and Epidemiology. If you are seeking a career with a dynamic research organisation which provides an opportunity to conduct cutting edge research in HIV and TB prevention and treatment, we believe that CAPRISA can advance your professional development.

#WorldTBDay24 With drug-resistant TB on the rise, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa, the CAPRISA-led TRIAD study adopts a 'Triage-and-Treat' approach, leveraging novel TB diagnostic technologies like the Cepheid Xpert® MTB/XDR assay. CAPRISA's focus is not just on diagnosis but on action. By implementing this new test, the goal is to ensure people get the right treatment faster, improving their chances of getting better. Join us in the fight against drug-resistant TB – it's not just about early detection; it's about timely treatment and making a real impact! #EndTB #Tuberculosis #WorldTBWeek #TRiADResearch

Drug-resistant TB is a growing concern worldwide, with Sub-Saharan Africa bearing a significant burden. Through research and collaboration, the CAPRISA led TRiAD consortium is committed to developing solutions that can help improve diagnosis and treatment outcomes for those affected by this challenging form of TB. Let's raise awareness, support early health-seeking behaviours, and work together with CAPRISA and TRiAD to combat drug-resistant TB effectively. #EndTB #Tuberculosis #WorldTBWeek #TRiADResearch
