Syphilis may be known as the ‘forgotten disease’, but in reality, it is making a comeback as cases rise around the world. Researchers at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and their international collaborators in Africa are working to enhance existing syphilis datasets. Diversifying data can help enable the design of novel vaccines as well as detect and track the spread of the bacterium to prevent further transmission.
