The purpose of the Safeguarding Science workshop is to raise awareness within Canada's scientific and academic communities about research security-related issues. The primary objective of this workshop is to raise awareness of the potential for misuse of dual-use research, technology and materials, along with potential risk indicators and mitigation tools to protect Canadian research assets.
The Centre for Biosecurity is excited to announce the launch of the new and improved PHAC Training Portal. The portal now includes a more modern, graphical interface. It is more accessible and mobile-device friendly. Join us at our webinar on May 30 for a tour of the new portal and closer look at the updates we have made to the portal and the training materials based on your feedback.
One of the requirements of any containment laboratory in Canada is to have a training plan for their employees including scientists, technicians, students, maintenance staff, security and authorized visitors. This webinar will provide an overview of what a training needs analysis is, how to create one, and considerations for the training plan. It will bring more clarity to the section 4.2 of the Canadian Biosafety Standard, Third edition.
The presentation aims to provide an overview of the Plan program, dual-use overview and oversight, identifying dual-use potential, performing a risk assessment, and mitigating research risks!
The goal of the webinar was to dive into equipment and system consideration that guide the selection process for safe and efficient laboratory operation. The presentation includes Transfer Equipment, Controlled Activity Equipment, and touched on the activities of the Biocontainment Engineering Science Working Group!
This Webinar is aimed at biocontainment professionals that are newer in the field. We’ll lay the foundation of what constitutes a complete biosafety program, and how it translates into the design and operation of a facility. This includes how to elaborate your program and procedures, as well as how to make a lab (new construction or renovation) physically fit your needs. We’ll also cover specific considerations for animal works, for small and large animals zones.
This webinar will provide updates on Laboratory Incident Reporting Canada 2022 Annual Report, Risk Group 3 Fungi Directive, Licensing updates and the Canadian Biosafety (CBS3) mobile app.
This webinar will provide an overview of what TDG is and explain the requirements related to the transportation of infectious substances.
This webinar will describe what is an incident. You will find out just how many types of incidents exist. How do you report a lab incident? To whom do you report these incidents? What are mandatory and voluntary incidents? What is involved? Why do we need to do this?
