Hanoi (VNA) – The Finlay Vaccines
Institute of Cuba and the Vietnamese company on November 24 agreed to
strengthen ties in the field of biotechnology.
“A delegation from Vabiotech headed by its director Nguyen
Anh Tuan visited the Finlay Institute, where they discussed collaboration and
future projects. The Vietnamese representatives were updated on the work of the
institution,” according to a message from the Cuban institute on the social
network X, as cited by Cuban news agency Prensa Latina (PL).
“In the meeting between the Finlay Institute and
Vabiotech, the desire to continue expanding collaboration between both
institutions was expressed,” the text says.
Recently, Duc Minh Medical JSC (Almedic) also signed
vaccine distribution and development contracts with Cuba’s leading biological
centres such as the Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology (CIGB) and
the Centre of Molecular Immunology (CIM).
Almedic has also cooperated with Da Lat Pasteur
Vaccine Company Limited (DAVAC) to be in charge of a stage of Cuban vaccine
production in Vietnam. It has sent many Vietnamese technicians and managers to
Cuba’s biological centres and advanced laboratories for short-term training, and
invited Cuban experts to Vietnam for technical training for vaccine production
facilities and quality monitoring agencies in the country./.
