rDNA

The University has a Biological Safety Officer in Environmental Health and Safety and a federally mandated Institutional Biosafety Committee (IBC), which includes faculty, the Biosafety Officer, the Compliance Coordinator, the Director of Animal Care, and community representatives. All research projects involving the use of rDNA must be registered with the Office of Research Affairs which provides reports to the IBC. The Biological Safety Officer pre-reviews rDNA project registrations and determines the level of review required.
