Additional Information
This group, together with the CNM Serology Laboratory (LS), houses the National Reference Laboratories for Rabies (RD 1940/2004) and Measles and Rubella (National Elimination Plan) that are integrated into the corresponding European networks. It has 10 self-developed techniques in its service portfolio (2 accredited by ENAC and 3 by the WHO). In addition, it attends to three CNM microbiological surveillance programs (measles and rubella, mumps and rabies). It is integrated into a CIBERESP group of which Juan E. Echevarría is head and in which other CNM researchers participate.
Research on MMR vaccine diseases is currently financed through an AESI project (PI15CIII/00023) of which Aurora Fernández García is co-PI and in which the LS, the CNE, the CAM (LRSP and the Epidemiology Service) and a network of primary care pediatricians participate. of the CAM.
Research on lisaviruses and other viruses associated with bats is currently funded through the VIROBAT-4 project (MINECO, SAF 2017-89355-P) of which Juan E. Echevarría is PI and in which the CNM Respiratory Viruses Laboratory, the Doñana Biological Station (CSIC) and the University of Alcalá de Henares participate.
