Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC)

The Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC) is composed of scientists and community members who review all research proposals involving recombinant and synthetic nucleic acids, chemical hazards, and biological hazards. The review process ensures that experiments are performed with appropriate safety precautions, and that all laboratory personnel are trained in the proper handling and disposal of hazardous agents.

Research with recombinant and synthetic nucleic acids must conform to the NIH Guidelines for Research Involving Recombinant or Synthetic Nucleic Acid Molecules (PDF).

For information, please call the IBC Coordinator 401-444-5847.
