My name is Peter Sebeny, a (US Navy) ID doc here now in Cairo at NAMRU-3. I am interested in your work. We also work with cdc here and have been interested in introducing MODS. As you know, the question is sometimes whether to introduce it as technology tranfer or protocol-based for validation against a gold standard (Which in reality is AFB smear). Anyways, I had a long email to you earlier that was somehow deleted before went through. We engage in a lot of medical diplomacy, and we are sending a MODS-TB prootocol through our institutution for Djibouti. I have spent quite some time in Djibouti as part of our medical diplomacy, and there are a lot of opportunnties to really make a difference. In addititon, the government is stable and transparent in terms of our common goals. I would love to hear about your experiences more. Ironic, as normally I don;t surf web that much at all. Anyways, drop a email if you care to, but would be appreciated.
