Infravec2 is a Research Infrastructure project of the European Union. The EU has funded the project to provide no-cost access for vector researchers and companies to products and services that will help their work on vector research and development of vector control tools. The central mission of Infravec2 is to distribute these no-cost resources, which are available from the online shop of our website. Infravec2 is not a traditional research project or research network, and the only research carried out by Infravec2 involves directly improving the quality and number of resources available for no-cost distribution to the research community.

The Infravec2 consortium is a four-year European Union project to distribute rare and unique resources from large vector infrastructures to the vector research community. The consortium of partners is already fixed for the funding term. These large infrastructure partners of the consortium agreed to produce and distribute resources using their existing facility and personnel. No new equipment, facility improvement, or personnel are funded by Infravec2. The providing partners are reimbursed for the actual cost of the resources they distribute, and no profit is made by providers. The central goal of the project is to offer opportunities for you, the vector research community, to request scientific resources at no cost, to assist your research. Our website has an online shop where you can request vector research resources (Products).

Yes, the Infravec2 project supports research project by giving access to vector biology products, services and access to facilities. Infravec2 is a source of research funding provided by the European Union for insect vector research. The support is provided as no-cost research resources, and the project does not provide direct financial grants.

Infravec2 can help you gain access to the unique tools you need to do your research, including bringing new capacities to your own laboratory and personnel, but the project does not fund construction of new research infrastructures.

Infravec2 will offer courses on Secure Insectary Experimental Methods, and Vector Genomics and Bioinformatics (see Training). The courses will particularly focus on junior scientists and research capacity strengthening. There will also be workshops and other networking opportunities to involve the community. Please watch the website for up to date information. In addition, Facility Access products in the online shop provide researchers with the opportunity to work in a sophisticated facility for studies on vector infection, behaviour and insecticides. A reasonable level of training will be provided if necessary prior to conducting research in these unique facilities.
