Project aim: implementation of the knowledge triangle of education, research and innovation through Multidisciplinary Innovative Centres for the Development of Virtual Laboratories in Biology and Medicine (MICVL) set up in Eastern Neighbouring Area Universities (ENAU) using Virtual Medical Microbiology Laboratory as a pilot product. The centres will produce innovative commercial research-based products for education and science in Biology and Medicine using research and innovative methodology in Information Technology.

Project objectives:

• To establish Multidisciplinary Innovative Centres for the Development of Virtual Laboratories in Biology and Medicine (MICVL) in each participating Eastern Neighbouring Area Universities.
• To create a Virtual Medical Microbiology Laboratory (VMML), as a pilot product for the established MICVL.
• To develop an efficient optimal scheme of VMML commercialisation and advertising.
• To disseminate the project outcomes applying strategy of both internal and external dissemination.
