Biological and Laboratory Safety

The Biological and Laboratory Safety Group’s mission is to prevent occupational infections/exposures and the release of potentially hazardous materials to the laboratory environment. The Biological and Laboratory Safety Group’s mission objective is achieved through the promotion of safe laboratory practices, procedures, and proper use of containment equipment and facilities also by stimulating responsible activities among laboratory workers and investigators at the NCI-Frederick.
