A new two day technical meeting inspired by fresh developments and current issues in the field, including recent releases of pathogenic material, the heightened prospect of bioterrorism and the near certainty of an influenza type pandemic in the near future.
The meeting will assess the current state of knowledge and the lessons learned from episodes including the Pirbright release in 2007. The challenges will be presented in the context of the technological solutions that might be deployed, in particular through effective chemical engineering. Appropriate regulatory frameworks will be discussed alongside current trends and technologies. Speakers include representatives from the Health and Safety Executive, Institute of Animal Health and IMG Europe BV. Visit our web-site www.icheme.org/biosecurity to view the full programme.
The event will be relevant to designers, manufacturers and operators of high risk containment bio process facilities as well as those concerned with emergency planning and public protection, regulators, academics and anyone with a technical interest in the safe production, supply, use and disposal of biologically active materials.
