Project Details
Description
In order to strengthening multidisciplinary research on infectious diseases as a critically important part of health sciences in the Baltic States, Europe and at global level, unlocking the scientific potential of Riga Stradins University, the main steps of the project are:
Establishment of two laboratories – digitally immunological visualisation laboratory and infectious disease modelling laboratory;
Purchase of modern research hardware and software;
Organisation of an international scientific conference and three workshops in Latvia;
Engagement of experienced incoming scientists to increase capacity of the institute;
Experience exchange and cooperation with European universities and leading research centres;
Advanced training in the field of intellectual property right protection.
