Their participation in “A Global Network of the Tropical Neglected Diseases (NTD),” directed by Durham University<\/a> in the United Kingdom and supported by the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF), is what has earned them prominence.<\/p>\n

Scientists from the UK, Uruguay, Brazil, and Argentina were part of this global network that was dedicated to fighting protozoan NTDs, particularly leishmaniasis and Chagas disease.<\/p>\n

Prof. Choudhary’s initiative in bringing together specialists from many scientific fields emphasises how important team science is to medical research.<\/p>\n

The academic community has applauded Prof. Dr. Iqbal Choudhary and his team for their outstanding achievement, and this award is a tremendous honour for Pakistan.<\/p>\n
