The Viral Vector Facility VVF was established as a non-profit entity in 2014 by an initiative of Prof. Jean-Marc Fritschy (former director of the Neuroscience Center Zurich, ZNZ) and Dr. Wolfgang Knecht (managing director of the ZNZ).
The ZNZ is a joint competence center of ETH Zurich and University of Zurich that connects and coordinates the research activities of more than 1'000 neuroscientists.
Dr. Jean-Charles Paterna was elected as manager of the VVF shortly after the VVF was established and Dr. Melanie Rauch joined the VVF as scientific associate.
Services became available in July 2015 and after an evaluation period of three years, the Technology Commission of the University of Zurich recognized the VVF as one of its permanent technology platforms.
The Institute of Pharmacology & Toxicology of the University of Zurich-Irchel (director: Prof. Bruno Weber) hosts the VVF since its beginning, granting generous access to laboratory space and equipment.
The close proximity between the neuroscience research community and the VVF at the University Zurich-Irchel campus ensures a strong exchange of the latest developments in the area of neuroscience and viral vector technology.
