¶ National JALMA Institute for Leprosy & Other Mycobacterial Diseases
National JALMA Institute for Leprosy & Other Mycobacterial Diseases was established in 1977 with a major thrust on studies on leprosy and its control programme. The Institute has contributed significantly towards better understanding of disease process by carrying out studies on nerve ectrophysiology, pathology and immunopathology of disease.
The Centre has developed molecular tools for improving histological diagnosis of leprosy and is actively engaged in experimental evaluation of newer drug regimens. The Centre imparts training on different aspects of leprosy. It is serving as a National Repository for Mycobacteria. Recently the Centre has started giving attention to other mycobacterial diseases.
