In this Grand Rounds, three global leaders in tuberculosis will describe UCSF’s pivotal role in combating the tuberculosis (TB) epidemic and some key innovations in this critical area of medicine and public health. We will cover global and domestic trends in epidemiology, new developments in diagnosis, prevention, and care, and the latest guidelines and policies shaping TB management worldwide.
Speakers
Babak Javid, MB, PhD, is a physician-scientist, Wellcome Trust investigator and associate professor in the Division of Experimental Medicine. His research focuses on fundamental mycobacterial pathophysiology, regulation of adaptive protein synthesis, molecular mechanisms of antibiotic tolerance and human humoral immunity to tuberculosis. He joined the UCSF faculty in July 2020.
Payam Nahid, MD, MPH, is professor of Medicine in the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, Allergy and Sleep Medicine at ZSFG. He is also director of Clinical Trials Operations in the UCSF Office of Research, director of the UCSF CTSA Trials Innovation Network Hub, and director of the UCSF Center for Tuberculosis. His research focuses on clinical trials, epidemiological, and translational TB research in international settings. Payam led the creation of the CDC’s Treatment of Tuberculosis guidelines and served on WHO Guideline Development Committees for TB.
Priya Shete, MD, MPH, is associate professor of Medicine in the Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care, Allergy and Sleep Medicine at ZSFG. Her research focuses on improving access to and quality of both TB and Covid-19 care for vulnerable populations. She also worked with the Global TB Programme of the WHO, and served as a public health advisor for USAID and a team lead for the California Department of Public Health for modeling and analytics during the Covid-19 response.
