To improve child health in Bangladesh and neighboring countries through evidence and advocacy. #forBangladesh #inBangladesh #withBangladeshchrfbd.org Dhaka, BangladeshJoined December 2016
7/ At CHRF, we continue to explore these possibilities as part of our commitment to a future where no child dies or suffers disability from a preventable disease.
1/ As World Phage Week 2026 comes to a close, we are reflecting on what research continues to reveal about bacteriophages, the viruses that kill bacteria.

4/ But the investigation doesn't end there. And now, our researchers continue to study Salmonella Typhi, tracking antibiotic resistance and revealing new clues to help protect children from typhoid.
1/ Every good detective knows that even the smallest clue can lead to a big discovery. In life sciences, those clues might begin with tiny colonies growing on a plate, helping researchers uncover the stories behind bacteria that cause serious illness.
1/ CHRF offers Whole Exome Sequencing (WES) to support the investigation of complex and undiagnosed genetic conditions. By combining next-generation sequencing with bioinformatics analysis and clinical interpretation, our service helps identify and classify genetic variants.
3/ Eligibility: Professionals and Bachelor's or Master's students and graduates in Life Sciences, Computer Science, Bioinformatics, or Public Health.
Workshop Date: 20–24 December 2026
2/ Participants will learn to analyze bacterial genomes from sequence data, investigate antimicrobial resistance, and explore comparative genomics and phylogenetics through hands-on sessions.
1/ Interested in exploring bacterial genomics, bioinformatics, and antimicrobial resistance through hands-on learning? CHRF’s 5-Day Workshop on Bacterial Genomics and Antimicrobial Resistance is now open for applications!
