Calmette's main scientific work, which was to bring him worldwide fame and his name permanently attached to the history of medicine was the attempt to develop a vaccine against tuberculosis, which, at the time, was a major cause of death. Calmette worked with Jean-Marie Camille Guérin discovering how to culture the tuberculosis bacillus, Mycobacterium tuberculosis to create BCG or the Bacillus Calmette-Guérin vaccine against tuberculosis.
