OBJECTIVES
This project aims at sharing best international laboratory practices between the two institutions involved. The project will enable the harmonization of laboratory practices with international standards, in order to prevent accidents and incidents in the laboratory.

ACTIVITIES
The project envisages an exchange of researchers - once a year for three years - between the two involved institutions of the two partner countries. The exchanges will be the occasion for the experts involved in the project to elaborate tailored teaching materials to be adopted in future trainings for laboratory personnel. The scientific content of the training will be jointly built by two teams of experts in medical bacteriology (one in Algeria and one in Italy).
