How We’re Different
Success Story
National Institutes of Health, Integrated Research Facility, Fort Detrick, Maryland
The Integrated Research Facilities (IRF) at Fort Detrick in Maryland was created to manage, coordinate, and facilitate the conduct of research on emerging infectious disease and biodefense pathogens to develop medical countermeasures and improve medical outcomes for patients. The facility features BSL-2, BSL-3, and BSL-4 biological containment laboratories, with unique aerobiology and BSL-4 imaging. The facility has 32,000 square feet of laboratory space, including an 11,000 square foot BSL-4/ABSL-4 laboratory and a 21,000 square foot BSL-2 laboratory space. This is the first BSL-4/ABSL-4 facility designed to contain MRI imaging technologies within containment space and the fifth operational BSL-4/ABSL-4 laboratory suite in the US.
Success Story
University of Louisville, Center for Predictive Medicine, Louisville, Kentucky
The University of Louisville received a National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) grant for the construction of a Regional Biocontainment Laboratory (RBL) with a twenty-year utilization requirement that began in 2007. The expectation is that the University will operate the laboratory into and beyond 2027. The 37,000 square foot facility is managed and operated by the University of Louisville, Center for Predictive Medicine. The RBL serves as a valuable shared resource for BSL-3 training, discovery of therapeutics against serious pathogens, as well as providing an infrastructure to meet pandemic or bioterrorism emergency needs.
