The CL3 Facility offers laboratory facilities at containment level 3, specialising in the use of aerosol-transmitted pathogens. The facility also offers enhanced biosecurity arrangements.
Our vision is to enable high-impact infectious disease research at King’s which will serve communities by driving positive change in health and improve pandemic preparedness.
Please contact us at the earliest opportunity (and before submitting grant applications) to discuss how we can support your work.
We provide broad expertise, effective training and specialised infrastructure for highly regulated infectious disease research. Our approach is solution-oriented and underpinned by RMID’s core value of operational excellence, implementing robust yet responsive and user-friendly procedures and systems. Supporting science, innovation, and the researchers who drive it, while maintaining the highest level of safety and compliance, is at the heart of everything we do.
We have three tissue culture laboratories available, each of which is dedicated to certain groups of biological agents.
A Nikon Eclipse Ti2 high-resolution, wide-field fluorescent microscope is available for use (subject to risk assessment).
