Among them, Tania Charpentier and Ana\u00efs Anton, supervisors of CL3, Mireille Cartier, biosafety officer at INRS, and Laurent Chatel-Chaix. They will ensure compliance with the rules in place and will carry out the first experiments. The team will also be responsible for providing theoretical and practical training of several hours to any person who will need access to it for their research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><br><strong>Photos of the laboratory and of Professor Laurent Chatel-Chaix:<\/strong> \u00a9 INRS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>INRS inaugurates its new Level 3 laboratory (CL3), which propels research on numerous pathogens. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":393,"featured_media":50524,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[688],"tags":[],"sectors":[678,679,732],"class_list":["post-50329","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-innover-a-linrs-en","sectors-biotechnologie-en","sectors-sante-en","sectors-societe-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.6 (Yoast SEO v24.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>A containment laboratory 3 propels research on COVID-19 and other pathogens | News | INRS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"INRS inaugurates today its new Level 3 laboratory (CL3), which propels research on numerous pathogens.
