Biosafety and Biosecurity Officers:
In most IEGBBR member countries, oversight systems mandate that each organization appoint a biological safety officer (or equivalent). While their qualifications and training vary, these officers generally develop and implement biosafety and biosecurity practices and coordinate with the national regulatory authority.Biosecurity risk assessments:
These assessments identify and evaluate risks related to pathogen storage and handling. Proportional mitigation measures are then developed to minimize these risks. Biosecurity risk assessments typically cover activities, pathogens, inventory, protective equipment, biocontainment, information security, accountability, and emergency plans.Register at:
