A productive UK Public Health Laboratories Learning Exchange was held with the UK Health Security Agency, bringing together Heads of Provincial Public Health Reference Laboratories from Pakistan and a representative from NIH Islamabad.

The delegation visited Manchester University Hospitals and the UKHSA Headquarters in London, where they observed the UK’s systems for outbreak surveillance, laboratory coordination, and public health response.

While the Pakistani team learned from the UK’s established public health laboratory network, the UK colleagues also showed strong interest in Pakistan’s field experience during the COVID-19 response and recent Mpox preparedness and response activities.

The visit concluded with a shared commitment to build sustainable scientific collaboration between UK and Pakistani public health laboratories, with a focus on outbreak preparedness, genomic surveillance, laboratory quality systems, and workforce development.
