Alternative and innovative approaches to TB diagnostics research: going beyond the test accuracy paradigm
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global health problem. Diagnosis is the critical first step in TB control and several promising diagnostics are being developed, along with new drugs and vaccines. While the implementation of new diagnostic tools would greatly contribute to control of this disease, TB diagnostic research is still focused on measures of test accuracy (i.e. sensitivity and specificity). If we draw parallels between the evaluation of diagnostic tests and therapeutic drugs, TB diagnostics research remains in the early Phase I/II stages of development. In a citation analysis of TB diagnostic studies in PubMed and EMBASE from 2007-2008, almost 84% were evaluation studies. Of these, more than 80% focused on test accuracy, with sensitivity and specificity as the most frequently-reported outcomes.

提早慶端午之渥太華鬱金香節之旅----意願調查
各位會員好
鬱金香節和端午節這兩個節日就快到了(ㄟ?),所以本會預計舉辦一次渥太華鬱金香之旅來慶祝端午節,今年端午節是六月六日,而鬱金香節是介於五月六日到五月二十三日(附帶一提,23日是Victoria Day),因此我想在此作一個願意一起去賞花的意願調查。行程可能會和旅行社合作,或是租車前往(如果司機夠的話)。

[MTGSA]重大新聞宣布!!!!!!以下補助已無故取消!!!!!!!!教育部補助留學生在國外參加全國性及國際性學術會議或藝能展演活動
各位會員好
因為本會有同學去申請此項補助,卻意外得知"教育部補助留學生在國外參加全國性及國際性學術會議或藝能展演活動"已在今年度取消。這消息實在是讓人十分錯愕,因為去年十月去渥太華開會時,TECO卻還準備了表格給每個與會的同學會,實有誤導大家之嫌。而在CTSA的網頁上竟然也還有這項補助的修正條文(http://www.canadatsa.org/2010/10/blog-post_9417.html)。若TECO已取消此項補助,應該至少要寄信通知給各個同學會,而且這項補助只補助有中華民國國籍者,這意味著我們擁有國籍者有權利得到這項補助(因為我們可是有繳稅的!),可見台灣經濟好轉對於留學生是一點鼓勵都沒有吧!
