Protecting scientists, the community, and the environment from potentially harmful biohazards is of paramount importance in every laboratory. Unfortunately, what should be a fairly straight-forward process — implementing biosafety procedures and policies — is actually rather complex. This webinar will help unravel some of that complexity. The expert speakers will discuss risk assessment, equipment selection, and how best to ensure a safe working environment for all personnel. Biosafety issues associated with scaling up science from bench to production will also be reviewed, along with common risk points associated with single-use process equipment.
You will learn about:
- Basic aspects of biosafety
- How to develop a biosafety risk assessment
- Selecting an appropriate biosafety level
- Equipment that enables a safe working environment
- Valuable resources for information about biosafety
Who should attend:
- Molecular biologists
- Cell biologists
- Drug discovery scientists
- Cancer researchers
- Bioprocessing scientists
