The CL3 Facility offers brand-new laboratory facilities at containment level 3. The facility specialises in the use of aerosol-transmitted pathogens, with comprehensive training provided to ensure all users can work safely and effectively within the facility. We may also be able to accommodate other types of work.
Our vision is to become a hub for excellence in infectious diseases research, e.g. through facilitating collaboration and knowledge exchange between researchers. Supporting science, innovation, and the researchers who drive it, while maintaining the highest level of safety and compliance, is at the heart of everything we do.
Please contact us at the earliest opportunity to discuss how we can support your work.
We provide broad expertise, effective training and specialised infrastructure for highly regulated infectious disease research. Our approach is solution-oriented, implementing robust yet responsive and user-friendly procedures and systems.
