Activities of the laboratory and workflows for handling BSL3 pathogens in the PRP infrastructure

The International Center for Genetic and Biotechnology (ICGEB)’s Molecular Virology Laboratory of Trieste, directed by Alessandro Marcello is responsible for understanding infection and cellular response mechanisms connected to emerging human pathogenic viruses, including SARS-CoV-2.

Basic research activity stimulates technology transfer in the research of antivirals and in the development of diagnostic and surveillance techniques necessary for the containment of infections, especially in countries with limited public health resources.
