Collaboration Network of Diagnostics Development Centers (CNDC)

As one of the initiatives under the Innovation Hub project, the Collaboration Network of Diagnostics Development Centers (CNDC) was established to promote collaboration between diagnostic research centers in 7 major universities across Thailand. The main objective of CNDC is to facilitate research, development, and production of diagnostic kits, with the ultimate aim of commercialization. This initative is led by the Cen ter of Excellence on Medical Biotechnology (CEMB) at Mahidol University, a research center specializing in the research and development of detection kits for diseases and food safety applications, with extensive experience in mediating collaboration between network universities in the field of medical biotechnology. Other universities in CNDC include Chiang Mai University, Naresuan University, Khon Kaen University, Burapha University, Prince of Songkla University, and Chulalongkorn University.
