Many of the world’s most deadly diseases—such as tuberculosis, Group A Streptococcus, hepatitis C, hepatitis B, and syphilis—lack effective vaccines or cures. Additionally, the pace of developing effective, low-cost, therapeutics for emerging pathogens in low resource settings is too slow to meet gl...
