Research Centres & Programmes

The Research Centres of KEMRI are created by the Board of Management of the Institute. These Centres are intended to focus on certain specific areas of national and/or strategic importance, and each of these Centres of excellence is expected to emphasize and articulate the respective areas in which it has been given mandate by the Board to do research. The Board, in conformity with the national objectives, may reorganise the structures of these Centres as it may deem appropriate.
