Duke undergraduate students interested in global health or data science along with Drs. Thuy Le and Tom Carpino from the Duke School of Medicine and Duke Global Health Institute, and a group of investigators from the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre in Moshi, Tanzania, will investigate how real-world climate factors impact trends in invasive fungal infection burden over time in Tanzania.
