Global research Agenda for Evidence-Based Biosafety
LAUNCHING A GLOBAL RESEARCH AGENDA FOR EVIDENCE-BASED BIOSAFETY
Deloitte Consulting LLP, are launching a global research agenda to advance evidence-based biosafety, funded by the U.S. Department of State (DOS/ISN/NDF). This project was born out of a “G7 Experts’ Meeting on Strengthening Laboratory Biorisk Management” in 2020, which recommended launching international experts’ workshops to develop such a research agenda.
The project aims to understand where empirical data could strengthen current biosafety practices, and, for those practices, to identify high priority research topics. We’re hosting a series of collaborative workshops with the global scientific community to solicit data needs and shape experiments, and the results of those discussions will feed directly into the research agenda.
For anyone interested in attending Deloitte will be offerring travel awards subject to review. Please note ABSANZ will not be funding any costs if members choose to attend.
