Basic lines of activities of the RIBSP

Basic engineering of viruses, bacteria and fungi, cellular biotechnology,

virology aimed at achieving new scientific knowledge for the

development of therapeutic and diagnostic preparations;

Development of biosafety, anti-epidemic and anti-epizootic measure

schemes and action plans in cases of biological terrorism with the use of

especially dangerous infectious diseases;

Development and enhancement of technologies for manufacturing

prophylactic, diagnostic and therapeutic preparations against infectious

diseases of human, animals, birds and plants;
