The NIAID TB Portals Program is a multinational collaboration to share and analyze tuberculosis (TB) data to advance TB research.
TB Portals is a web-based, open-access repository of multi-domain TB data and tools for its analysis. It offers linked socioeconomic/geographic, clinical, laboratory, radiological, and genomic data from over 33,000 international TB patient cases.
Researchers can explore and analyze these data using any of the tools. TB Portals data are also available for download to support your research.

Main Areas of Focus
- Support scientific research through data sharing and collaboration with scientists and programs studying clinical, genomic, and radiological aspects of TB.
- Partner with institutions worldwide to collect multi-domain data from TB patient cases.
- Share multi-domain data so each TB Portals case includes linked clinical, demographic, bacterial genomic, and radiological information.
Tools
Collaboration Opportunities
Collaborating with clinical and research partners is a key part of the TB Portals program. Sites across Eastern Europe, Asia, and sub-Saharan Africa share data through the TB Portals.
The Program also engages with academic and private partners on research and software development projects, focusing on TB genomics, radiomics, and data science.
How To Get Started
Anyone can access and use TB Portals after reviewing the data sharing and acknowledgement policies.
