While the NIH’s current efforts to modernize biosafety by overhauling NIH Guidelines could improve the quality and efficiency of biosafety oversight, deregulatory pressures could weaken biosafety. This presentation will look at the pros and cons of different approaches for overhauling NIH Guidelines while referring to real world case studies and publications to point out possible areas for improvement or pitfalls. This talk will also explore other federal regulations that could be utilized for reinforcing biosafety oversight through federal agencies outside the NIH.
