In this episode of LSTM in Conversation, host Dr Kerry Millington, Senior Research & Policy Associate at LSTM and working as a Research Uptake Manager on the LIGHT research programme, speaks with Dr Jasper Nidoi and Dr Chukwuebuka Ugwu, early career researchers at the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, about their work on the LIGHT Research Programme, a UK AID–funded initiative tackling gender and social barriers to tuberculosis (TB) care in Africa. 

From Uganda to Nigeria, Jasper and Ebuka share insights from their doctoral studies on developing gender-responsive and community-led approaches to TB diagnosis and treatment, highlighting why men are often “missing” from TB services and how co-designed, people-centred interventions are changing that. 

Later in the episode, LSTM alumnus Dr Mohammed Yassin, Senior Advisor on Tuberculosis at The Global Fund, joins the discussion to reflect on the importance of mentoring early career researchers, building equitable partnerships, and translating evidence into policy to accelerate progress towards ending TB.
