The Provost’s Office is pleased to announce the formation of an Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC.) The IBC is charged with reviewing and approving research, classroom and laboratory educational activities that require the use of recombinant or synthetic nucleic acid molecules technology, infectious or potentially infectious agents, and/or involve human tissue or body fluids, or animals that may carry zoonotic disease caused by infections that are shared between animals and people.
For further information on projects requiring IBC review and approval, please visit the IBC website at www.up.edu/ibc.
