This report is the product of an effort by the Treatment Action Group (TAG) to ascertain the major funders of tuberculosis (TB) research and development (R&D) in 2005, what kinds of research activity they funded, and how much research activity is already taking place. This assessment will help policymakers, funders, researchers, and advocates understand the current state of research on TB, and it provides a baseline for understanding how much TB research funding will need to increase in order to bring TB under control over the next decade.
