Conrad Freuling

Conrad Freuling is a Researcher at the Institute of Molecular Virology and Cell Biology (IMVZ) within the Friedrich-Loeffler-Institut (FLI) in Greifswald, Germany. The FLI serves as the National Reference Laboratory (NRL) for Rabies and holds international designations from WOAH, WHO, and FAO for rabies research and diagnostics.

His expertise centers on rabies virology with emphasis on molecular mechanisms and cellular interactions. Key research themes include:

• Rabies virus pathogenesis and transmission dynamics
• Molecular evolution of lyssaviruses
• Host-pathogen interactions in neural tissue
• Diagnostic assay development for rabies
• Veterinary aspects of zoonotic disease control

As part of the rabies reference team, Dr. Freuling contributes to national surveillance programs and international outbreak responses. His thesis supervision activities are documented in OpenAgrar, though specific student names are not publicly listed on his institutional profile.
