The push to get new biocontainment lab space (new construction and space retrofits) up and operating quickly faces formidable challenges: the correct technical decisions, construction costs, long-term operating expense, funding sources, quality of design and construction, regulatory compliance, operational risks, and uncertainty about research futures.
Attend this conference to learn how the new biocontainment facility project models are addressing those challenges with safe, flexible, more economical, and quicker solutions involving:
|
• Operational- and risk-based facility plans • Multi-pathogen/Multi-protocol programs • Integrated BSL-lab/animal facilities • Bioaerosol high-containment facilities • Containment for vaccine development and bio-manufacturing • Better commissioning, certification, and validation processes • Construction cost & contracting strategies • Operations and maintenance programs
|
In cooperation with The American Biological Safety Association

|
Here, you’ll examine leading-edge biocontainment facility-types; learn the latest design, construction, and system details; formulate the right biocontainment facility plans; make cost-effective decisions on flexibility; and scope out your maintenance and operating plans.
Make the 2007 International conference on Biocontainment Facilities a cornerstone of your team’s planning (project, operations, and science people) for cost-effective, on-time, functionally-correct biocontainment facility outcomes.
I look forward to seeing you in San Diego in March.
