ERINHA

The pan-European BSL-4 research infrastructure

ERINHA (European Research Infrastructure on Highly Pathogenic Agents) is a pan-European Research Infrastructure dedicated to study high-consequence pathogens of Risk Group 4 (RG4). As a distributed Research infrastructure it brings together leading European biosafety level 4 (BSL-4) facilities and national research institutes with longstanding experience of research in this field. Such a coordinated approach is vital in the context marked by frequent globalization of infectious diseases with high risk for public health, society and economy. The overarching goal of ERINHA’s Infrastructure research concept is to provide capacities to conduct projects which are broad in scope, ambition and require a wide range of capabilities inside and outside BSL-4 facility that no single facility can provide on its own.
The access to the ERINHA is organized through its Central Coordinating Unit, hosted in Paris.

The ERINHA’s Research Portfolio is an evolving strategy built on the WHO Research and Development Blueprint with systematic updates to match with European and Global Research and Innovation and Public Health needs. The current prioritized agents are the following: Ebola, Marburg, Lassa, Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever, Nipah/Hendra, Unknown agents.

ERINHA’s research approach ranges from discovery to prevention on the field of highly pathogenic agents. The main fields are to provide diagnostic capabilities, increase the understanding of the diseases, develop new interventions and translate them to the market demands.

ERINHA provides services to public, academic and industrial (SME, big pharma) users. The access to ERINHA’s services is ensured through its Central Coordinating Unit (CCU) (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.). ERINHA CCU coordinates not only single-site studies but large-scale ambitious projects that require the capabilities of a multiple BSL- 4 and complementary research facilities.
