Funding: Parts of this work are based on CUK's Ph.D. research funded by a Gates Cambridge Scholarship, the Cambridge Philosophical Society, the Cambridge European Trust and Clare Hall, Cambridge. SJP receives grant funding from the Health Protection Agency, and from the UKCRC Translational Infection Research (TIR) Initiative supported by the Medical Research Council (Grant Number G1000803) with contributions to the Grant from the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council, the National Institute for Health Research on behalf of the Department of Health, the Chief Scientist Office of the Scottish Government Health Directorates, and the Wellcome Trust. SJP and EJPC receive support from the NIHR Cambridge Biomedical Research Centre. MTGH, GD, SDB, and JP are supported by the Wellcome Trust. SHG receives grant funding from the Medical Research Council, the European Developing Country Clinical Trials Partnership, the Global Alliance for TB Drug Development, and the European Union. The funders had no role in study design, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation of the manuscript.
Competing interests: I have read the journal's policy and have the following conflicts: CUK, MJE, EJPC, NMB, MTGH, GD, SDB, JP, and SJP have collaborated with Illumina Ltd. on a number of scientific projects. JP has received funding for travel and accommodation from Pacific Biosciences Inc. and Illumina Inc. NMB is a consultant for Astellas Pharma Ltd. SHG has received payments from Bayer Schering Health Care for lectures. SJP is a consultant for Pfizer Inc. This does not alter our adherence to all PLoS Pathogens policies on sharing data and materials.
