Biological/Genetic Modification safety toolkit

The Universty Arrangements Chapter 3 covers managing biological safety (including work on genetically modified organisms).

This toolkit contains information needed for users to manage the risks associated with their

biological hazards, and
work with genetically modified organisms (GMOs)

and gives guidance on

managing the facilities where this work is carried out
the remit of local Bio/GM committees, and
other related hazards e,g, waste, transport and chemicals

The University's Biological Safety Advisor, together with University Safety Co-ordinators, is able to advise schools and individuals on appropriate facilities, operational matters, risk assessments and training for work with GMOs and other biological materials.
