Biosafety Training

All persons working in laboratories where biohazardous materials are used or stored shall participate in and complete biosafety training appropriate to their work environment and position duties. Such training shall be repeated on a basis deemed necessary by the IBC and based on requirements to improve safety at UNTHSC, increase safety awareness in work areas, and meet requirements set forth by CDC, NIH, OSHA, and other applicable regulations and standards.

In addition to registration of work involving potentially pathogenic agents/material, training is required for research personnel. The Basic Biosafety Training is available online.
