New TB test scoops top prize at Medical Futures competition

ifficult through a lack of inexpensive diagnosis equipment which can be deployed quickly and easily. The MODS test provides a simple solution to this, and I am very pleased that this has been acknowledged by winning this very prestigious award."

Professor Stephen Smith, Principal of the Faculty of Medicine at Imperial College London said: "David and Jon's work is an excellent example of how organisations such as Imperial can really help make a difference. The development of a low cost practical solution which can be rolled out in countries with a limited infrastructure could make an enormous difference in eradicating TB."
