ICMR Virus Research and Diagnostic Laboratories Dataset

The Virus Research and Diagnostic Laboratory Network (VRDLN) is a project funded by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR)/ Department of health research aimed at strengthening viral disease diagnosis, research, and surveillance across India. VRDLN establishes a network of laboratories to enhance diagnostic capacity, conduct research, and provide training and capacity building for laboratory personnel. The project focuses on diagnostic services for viral diseases (also Non-viral), By upgrading laboratory infrastructure, standardizing diagnostic protocols, and fostering collaboration, VRDLN aims to improve diagnostic services, enhance research capacity, and strengthen public health infrastructure to respond effectively to viral disease outbreaks and promote better health outcomes. Information on the sample type and the date it was collected. While the actual datasets are not shared, the platform allows researchers to explore metadata and request data-driven insights to support their studies. It aligns with ICMR's mission to advance health research and facilitate informed decision-making, providing a robust resource for Researchers.
