This committee provides federally-mandated oversight of activities that present risk of infection or illness in humans. Federal guidelines require that applicants possess prior experience with a particular agent or procedure, and those supervising the activity should be familiar with proper safety precautions, procedures involving storage, and disposal. A link to federal guidelines can be found on the Institutional Biosafety website – https://www.ithaca.edu/biosafety/.
