EIT Pathogena unlocks the full potential of your current sequencing solutions.

Using our first automated tool for Mycobacteria, you can rapidly process, analyse, share and compare your genomic sequence data.
Based on the latest WHO catalogue and utilising cloud computing, EIT Pathogena is simple to use and easy to access. You can generate reports for a deep, complete and reliable understanding of your Mycobacteria samples to inform public health decision making.
Together, we can enable better management of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Non-tuberculous mycobacteria, globally.

Our vision

We aim to help reduce the millions of lives lost through inappropriate treatment of infectious diseases and the avoidable escalation from local outbreaks to pandemics.

Addressing the growing Tuberculosis crisis

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) and Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) remain significant global health threats, ranking among the top ten causes of death worldwide.
In 2022 alone, 10.6 million people were diagnosed with TB, and 1.3 million died of the disease. The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated the situation, increasing the incidence of TB and drug-resistant TB cases (1). Delays in progress are projected to cost the global economy $3 trillion by 2045.

The WHO identified that one of the main challenges in combating TB is the computational resources required for generating, analysing, storing, and managing sequencing output data.

EIT Pathogena will help tackle these challenges and take your TB analysis to the next level.
