Saskatchewan Disease Control Lab

Completed in February 2010, the new building for the Saskatchewan Disease Control Laboratory is located at Regina Research Park, adjacent to the University of Regina.

The new laboratory will meet Saskatchewan's future needs by improving testing capability and speeding up intervention in the event of a public health crisis such as SARS or an influenza pandemic. It will enhance existing services such as testing for and monitoring of environmental specimens, food-borne illnesses, communicable diseases and influenza, including pandemic influenza.
