Project description
Advancing coordination of infrastructure to respond to highly infectious diseases
The outbreaks of the 21st century, from SARS, Ebola and Zika to the COVID-19 pandemic and Monkeypox, have demonstrated our global vulnerability to highly infectious diseases (HID). Prompt access to high-containment (biosafety levels (BSL) 3 & 4) laboratories is required for safely conducting research on HID. However, such facilities are rare and costly. The European Research Infrastructure on Highly Pathogenic Agents (ERINHA) was created to enable the coordination of high-containment services within the scientific community, including access to BSL3 and BSL4 facilities, expertise, and training. The EU-funded ERINHA-Advance project will contribute to the long-term sustainability of the ERINHA effort, increasing its membership, improving its services and addressing infectious disease events of public concern.
