By building a BSL-3 facility, Hebrew University will be able to continue engaging in cutting-edge research to develop solutions to lethal or infectious diseases such as SARS-CoV-2. This is important for the biotech industry, Israel and the world.
We are grateful to our US partners who are helping equip our researchers. This much-needed infrastructure will greatly advance computational medicine in the post-coronavirus era.
