Swiss TPH Symposium: Defining the Noma Research Agenda
Noma is a devastating disease that mainly affects children living in extreme poverty. Recently recognised as a neglected tropical disease by the World Health Organization (WHO), we want to bring together experts and stakeholders from different fields to set a common research agenda for noma.
Join us at our symposium on 20 September 2024 and help us unite efforts to better understand, prevent and treat noma. The symposium is co-organised with Elysium, the first noma survivors' association.
