Transgenic Core Facility (CCMR-TCF)
The Transgenic Core Facility (CCMR-TCF), being a part of the CCMR, supports the Faculty in research by preserving valuable transgenic mouse lines through embryo/sperm cryopreservation, re-derivation and rescue of mouse colonies using assisted reproductive technology, and generating novel transgenic and gene targeted mice for researchers to study various disease models. The mission of TCF is to provide an efficient centralised service to support HKU’s cutting-edge research involving genetically modified animals.
WHO Collaborating Centre for Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Control
The School of Public Health has been designated as a WHO Collaborating Centre for Infectious Disease Epidemiology and Control. The designation of HKU School of Public Health as a WHO CC is the first of such kind at the University.
WHO H5 Reference Laboratory
The Centre of Influenza Research at HKU is one of 12 laboratories worldwide designated as a WHO H5 reference laboratory. Its mandate is to provide international reference laboratory services and training on H5 and other animal influenza viruses with zoonotic potential, to provide WHO with data and risk assessment relevant to such zoonotic threats and advice on selection of relevant viruses for pre-pandemic vaccine development.
