From:  Anniek Akkerboom, Amsterdam, the Netherlands


 

 

Dear colleagues,

I am glad to announce that the Leprosy Research Initiative's (LRI) annual report is published. Please click here to read the full report. LRI contributes to zero leprosy by promoting, facilitating and funding high-quality research; strengthening research capacity, and facilitating the translation of results into policy and practice.

Unfortunately, we are still in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Should you be interested in information resources on COVID-19 and leprosy, please visit the key topic page 'Leprosy and COVID-19' at Infolep. We keep this page updated with, among others, guidance reports, articles and online courses.

Like every month we send you an overview of publications on leprosy recently added to the Infolep website. Please feel free to contact me to receive full-text versions if these cannot be found through the Infolep portal. Also, I would be happy to assist you with literature searches.

Warm regards,

Anniek Akerboom

Notification

 


 

The journal Leprosy Review has a renewed website www.leprosyreview.org. Unfortunately, temporary technical issues have led to several volumes of Leprosy Review not being available on the new website and therefore not accessible through the Infolep portal. We are collaborating with Leprosy Review to ensure that the links will work properly again as soon as possible. Please contact info@infolep.org to receive the Leprosy Review publication you are looking for or visit the Leprosy Review web archive.
