World's largest collection of viruses: Inside the massive biodefense lab in Houston area
KTRK, February 15, 2023
The largest collection of viruses in the world is protected and studied inside a massive biodefense lab. The largest high-containment lab of its kind in the country is in the Houston area. The Galveston National Laboratory isn't exactly a secret, but it's not open to the public either. “I’m proud of the work that the scientists are doing here, said Dr. Gary Kobinger, lab director. “I’m just one of the supporters, let's say. There are a lot of great scientists doing the work.”
