ECDC: On Air - Episode 68 - A Network of Laboratory Excellence
Podcast
In this episode, we discuss EU Reference Laboratories (EURLs) with Andreas Hoefer from ECDC and Rita Figueira from the European Commission’s DG SANTE.
They explain the vital role these laboratories play, how both organisations support national labs, ensure test results are reliable across borders, and strengthen Europe's ability to respond to health threats as part of the European Health Union.
