As a patient advocate from Inspire2Live, the Dutch and international organization of patient advocates that aims to get cancer under control, it's not a weird question to write an article about tuberculosis. It is particular not weird because I was asked about how to come to a better approach of setting up research for a better treatment of tuberculosis. To be honest, I know almost nothing about tuberculosis. I know a lot about cancer and about how to organize settings, workshops and brainstorm sessions for realizing new approaches to deal with it. I'm convinced it works for other diseases as well. We call our approach "The Discovery Network" (DN). Let's see how this.
