Anticipating Biosecurity Needs: No Easy Task

As researchers continue to make advances in biotechnology, industry and governments must ensure that proper biosafety and biosecurity measures are in place to mitigate biothreats.

Introduction to Biosafety and Biosecurity

Biotechnology research is advancing at a rapid pace. Scientists must seriously consider biosecurity and biosafety concerns that may arise in their work.

Ensuring the Responsible Use of Synthetic DNA

DNA synthesis companies must ensure that the synthetic DNA they create is used only in responsible research. Continued investment in biosecurity will be critical as synthetic biology technologies advance.

Synthetic Biology and Biosecurity Policy

Biosecurity policy initiatives are ill-equipped to keep pace with the risks, threats, and vulnerabilities associated with recent synthetic biology research and innovations.

Defending Against Future Pandemics

High-biocontainment labs carry out ongoing research on lethal diseases to prepare the U.S. for potential outbreaks.
