SHARP Joint Action (Strengthened International Health Regulations and Preparedness in the EU)

SHARP Joint Action aims to strengthen preparedness in the EU against serious cross-border threats to health and support the implementation of International Health Regulations (2005). The department of bacteriology has mainly been involved in WP7 (Laboratory preparedness and responsiveness). The objective of this WP has been strengthened laboratory preparedness and responsiveness to detect highly pathogenic infectious agents of Risk Group 3 (RG3) bacteria and Risk Group 4 (RG4) viruses. This includes quality assurance of diagnostic methods, the evaluation of new diagnostic approaches and the improvement of biosafety and biosecurity systems in highly specialized SHARP partner laboratories (EMERGE Laboratory Network).
