Institute of Advanced Virology
The Institute of Advanced Virology (IAV) was established by the Government of Kerala through the Kerala Biotechnology Commission (KBC) of the Kerala State Council for Science Technology and Environment (KSCSTE), in response to the 2018 Nipah virus outbreak in Kerala. The institute is located in the Bio 360 Life Sciences Park at Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India. Its foundation stone was laid on 30 May 2018, and the institute was inaugurated on 9 February 2019. IAV is affiliated with the Global Virus Network (GVN). The institute comprises several divisions dedicated to different areas of virology research, including Clinical Virology, Viral Diagnostics, Viral Vaccines, Antiviral Drug Research, Viral Applications, Viral Epidemiology, Vector Dynamics, and Public Health, Virus Genomics, Bioinformatics, and Statistics, and General Virology. These divisions reflect the institute's broad focus on understanding viral diseases, developing diagnostic and vaccine technologies, and supporting public health responses to viral outbreaks. The establishment of IAV represents Kerala's effort to strengthen its scientific and medical infrastructure for managing viral threats, particularly after the state's experience with the Nipah virus outbreak.
